The CB450 finally leaves the kitchen

Let's see..last weekend I gathered some old warped 2x6's and made that ramp off the rear porch for rolling the cb450 out of the house. Today decided I'd waited long enough and rolled the bike out of the kitchen, down the ramp into the rear yard. It's out! I then bought a battery and some fuel line and went about readying it for a test fire. I found out the ignition switch was bad so used an old one to make a pig tail connector to hot wire it. Everything worked/came on- headlight(hi,lo), blinkers, horn, etc. But the starter just spun as if not engaging. Funny-I had found a bag labeled "cb450 starter chain" when cleaning up a few weeks ago- inside was a chain that goes from starter gear to the gear on the crank shaft. I thought it must have been extra, from one of the parts bikes, and set it aside. Well, it turns out I had left it off when I had removed the stator to solder new wires on- like 2 years ago. So, I removed the starter, side cover and stator and installed the missing chain. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to the gas lines and tightening the plugs and give it a serious try. An additional plus- I now have room for a kitchen table.
