may seem stupid but will a z50 run without the key?? the only reason i ask is because i just got it and i have a crf70 that will run even if you disconnect the key. i would just unhook it and try to start it but i just got the bike and dont know if it runs to begin with.



Also would a crf50 carb and intake be the same??? I need a carb for my 1971 z50 project and thought about getting a crf50 carb

I've never unplugged the key switch on my '71, but I think it just provides a path to ground for the coil primary current supply (when you switch it off). If I'm right, unplugging the switch would let it run but you wouldn't have a way to kill the ignition.



I'll verify this later tonight when I get home and take a look at the wiring harness.
