Starter turns but motor doesn't
Okay so I hooked up a charger to the 72 project...no battery yet.
Tried to see if she would turn over on her own (engine is free). The starter turns however the engine does not.
Is this normal if there is not enough voltage/amperage (no battery just 12 v charger) or should I order a Bendix?
I've ordered a bunch of parts...just getting antsy!
Thanks!

You bring up a good point APD...I have a problem finding neutral too...the clutch doesn't seem to disconnect the power from the wheel.
Should this bike be 1 down 3 up or 1 up and 3 down?
In any case I am hoping getting it running after 23 years will "fix" these issues. Only time will tell.
