Hi, I was just wondering if it is possible to kickstart and run the bike without the starter solenoid? My bike is a 1975 cb750.

Yes, can take about 20 lbs off the bike, but involves. Cutdown rotor, smaller battery, etc.. But you can do only part of that and save weight.  I still have starter blockoff plugs.

Well, as of now I was just thinking if it would run without the solenoid connected because when I got the bike the solenoid was pretty busted. Im just trying to get it to run as of now.
