Working on a trike that I kicked to the side about 15 years ago. So starting from scratch. Engine has freshly built top end. Working thru the electrical. I need to test basic components before I start buying stuff. I know the key switch is bad. That is unplugged. Kicked over, no spark. So will it spark if the kill switch is also unplugged? I am trying to unhook anything I can to narrow down the problem. Does the neutral switch have to be connected and working for it to kickstart? I don't have a running bike with compatible cdi to test it. I will replace all the bad/questionable parts once it runs and I see the trans and rear end are good.

Yes it will spark without kill switch. Neutral switch however is a good question
