Hello just bought myself a project (box of bits) describing itself as a Honda Vision. Its completely stripped but the engine is in place and I can see a HT lead and coil plugged in. What I want to know is, how can I hear it running? whats the minimum wireing that needs to be attached to get it to fire up? I think its all ready to run but all the wires are missing and I dont have a battery so will it run with a kick start and a couple of wires twisted together?

Do you have the wires coming FROM the magneto side? if so, on hondas, I think it's a BLACK wire that needs connecting to the ignition components. get them all plugged in and mounted up and she SHOULD fire up if there is compression and fuel/air in the right quantities and spark
