I guess what im trying to convey is that none of this is rocket science, and all the information you need is out there. I dont even come close to knowing everything or probably even being proficient, but I've been able to accomplish a lot just by tinkering and educating myself.
You seem like you're trying to do that. As I mentioned before if I were closer id be happy to come give you a hand and unload whatever little knowledge I have.
Ive only learned what I have because Ive been in the same situation you have over the years, being forced to fix something and not knowing how.
ANyhow, good luck. Post up what you find out as far as why your bike wont start so we know what happened, or if you have more questions..

Will do, and i agree with you tinkering and not being afraid to play with things is the best way to learn, as long as you do so safely and without compromising the bikes safety. The truth is working on bikes is quite gratifying, and not terribly difficult once you figure things out. I know it seems silly, but when i rebuilt my starter i felt like i was on top of the world! the feelings i got when i heard that motor purr was something i'll never forget...
thanks again.
