Thanks guys for all the help I have the electronic ignition and my wiring harness ordered and waiting for it to come in to finish that part of my project. I do have one more question I was wondering if I can install a kick start on my bike and if yall have any ideas or opinions on that.

Best to remind us of the year etc of your bike.

1981-on, no kick start possible
1980, maybe
1979 & earlier, yes get the kit from J&P Cycles or any other of the usual suppliers.
