Thanks great suggestions Bruce

Thanks, I will do and let you know and thanks again. Hopefully I will post pics as I turtle along. Bruce

To all My apologies, I was excited and forgot my manners. My name is Bruce and I live in central Ohio. I use to own a bike (xt250) and took it with me to Hawaii to live many years ago. Last night I did apply power and the some of lights came on, accessories, brakes and turn signals. I am getting power through the switch and I hear the relay click but no starter movement my guess I need to start with a multi-meter. If any one has an idea I would appreciate it. Bruce

I just came into possession (real cheap) of a 1979 yamaha 1100 and there was no battery and not running. But I love the look the specs and the bike. Questions can I jump it? Since there was no battery there also was no cables to the battery left with the bike. So where to they hook to? I am assuming there is a ground that goes to the bottom of the tray and I found a red wire on the back that looks like it received the hot but I'm just guessing. Then what.... Bruce
