mine appeared to run without a battery. it definitely ran with zero battery acid in it, does that count? it had points, and no fancy electrics. well I think it did. It's just occured to me that in 16,000 kms I never looked at the points. maybe it ran without points too :-)
I didn't really understand how it managed to start with only the energy from my right leg, but it did.
put it back to stock, and see if it fixes the starting? I've only had experience of fitting electrickery to old cars, and it can produce odd-ness. are you getting a spark?
I'm rubbish on electrics, but with the battery removed have you broken the circuit? What about completely discharging your battery, but leave it in the circuit. does the bike start?
how are those electrons (?) going to get down the +ve wires if you've disconnected the big fat one?
