Hi it is truly amazing what some expect from very old motorcycles never intended to last this long. It was built to last 10 years at most the wiring will have become brittle and need replacing. The engine must so worn it would not start anyway. This bike is a scrapper at 43 years old.
Sounds like the ignition coil is bad… Probably an internal short in the coil which causes the power feed wire to get hot and also no spark to the plugs. Replace the coil. Check for frayed, corroded or damaged wiring as well.

First bike and I have no idea how how to install he coil I ordered one for 36$ from the local bike shop. Is that expensive? And if you can could you send a diagram or draw a very detailed pic. Or make a video to show it
- Having some Honda problems any ideas? I was riding my 2006 crf 250r and it just had a top end rebuild and it was running fine for a while but I just took it out a couple days ago and after riding for about an hour the compression in the kickstart got really stiff and a couple times it backfired when I kick started it and I couldn't start if at all. Any ideas what it could be?
