70'S Honda

A friend of mine dropped of a 70's 90cc Honda motorcycle. It was given to him for nothin. He said the guy who had it b4 him said that it just quit runnung. It has no spark. He also added that it died slowly.
It seems to have good compression. I pulled the plug and it was black. I'm assuming that when it was dieing it's slow death that the coil was going bad. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be much appreciated.

That's what I was figuring. It looks like quite a job to get to it. Here is a pic of one.

That's a sweet looking little bike. I'd check the points also, and then the coil and condensor. But first things first..... is the plug good and are the switches working right? Let us know how it works out.
