Took the carb out. Took a look at the jets. Cleaned them out with a little B12.
Put everything back together.
Turns but won't start.

Roll started it. Fires up and runs well. :skeptical:

Annoying.

Does anyone know much about the ignitor? I'm guessing I'm going to have to go after the electrical system. Maybe the ignition spark is just not getting timed right due to a faulty ignition circuit.

I have the following theory. When I roll start the bike, maybe when I pop the clutch the ignition circuit gets cut out because the clutch lever is open - the ignition circuit stops screwing up the timing - the distributor takes over the timing and the bike starts.
