I'm back! And my bike started! (muchos gracias to all who responded: it was the tip switch, I had put it in upside down, hence no spark!)
Now for the next question... all this started when I put a new valve gasket on to stop a gush of oil leaking... well, the gush is down to a very slow drip, and it is coming from the bottom of the little rubber half-moon cam plug. Is there any way to fix this besides getting a new rubber plug? The guy at a local shop told me to wrap it in teflon tape and reinstall it... any merit to that?Where do I get new plugs if I have to go that route?
PS I just bought my second bike, an XS750 triple, I will be picking it up at the end of the month! Woo hoo!
