I put the new battery in Marilyn's motorcycle on Friday and it worked! The problem was not anything exotic just a dead battery.
The problem with this motocycle is that a lot of the parts are not easily available. So if I needed some ignition part I could have been out of luck for a while. Now we just have to wait for the insurance document so we can register the bike. I have to fix the problems for state inspection. One new problem a bad stop light switch. The switch is available from an online old bike part dealer. I found 12 inch rear shocks to lower the bike. This is an inch lower then the ones I found earlier. Marilyn's low rider will be running soon.
