I will retorque the head when I get home and see what happens.
Oh, By the way, THANK YOU all for trying to help me with this problem.

Ok, I torqued the head to specs, tried firing up with pipe off, just spewed gas on the bike, no fire. any other suggestions? I will offer a free beer (Deschutes Brewery Mirror Pond Pale Ale from right here In Beautiful Bend, Oregon) shameless plug for a great beer, to any one that can figure it out, If you do not drink beer, then a pop!

i say you have no spark...first i'm in for the beer...and i'll pay the shipping...now we have three areas to check...cut off switch..cdi...magneto...first take off your magneto plate and check wires...connections...than follow your blue and black wires out off the engine and check these connections...tape off the white wire..if you have a headlight we'll connect it later...remember...blk to blk...blue to blue...thats it...do not hook up the kill switch...now you are wired direct..check plug...gap between .24 and .30...now does your bike move freely or do you have to pull the clutch in to move it...if the later...fine
..put your muffler back on...go out and start it...by the way what kind of carb do you have?one thing at a time from here...we must do it this way or its a hit and miss...get back to me . Dennis...i,m going for the beer...ha

I am getting spark but is it enough, a guy at the small engine repair place here in town said that even if it was a weak spark it should still go.
fuel= fresh 92 octane, coming out the pipe so I think that it is getting to much fuel.
spark= New CDI, new plug wire/boot/plug, when grounded there is spark on the plug. gap =.024
combustion= when I try to get it started, if im not going fast enough it will almost buck me off, so i think that is enough, is there a base point for setting the clutch i.e. so many screws in on the flower nut and then back it out, kind of like the idle screw on the carb?

The carb is the stock "speed" I think that it is the newer one with the shut off on the carb.
Q
Sounds like all is in order except you are getting too much gas to the cylinder. Try starting it wide open with no choke (lever down), and pedal like ****!

ok...for one i dislike those carbs...second, yes the star nut on the clutch can be set...just take the set screw off and turn it to the right, to tighten,...it sounds like its set enough to start...everthing we do from this point is to start it...the fine tuning comes later...ok...the white wire is disconnected and taped, right...because if it is grounding the bike it will cause the bike not to start...have you disconnected the kill switch...?get right back to me...i;m in reno on your time, so i'll stay with you untill we ge it started...Dennis
try joes suggestion next,
choke off, hold the throttle wide open and pedal like **** and get back to us on what happens with that
