I have a 1974 Honda XL100. It runs and I ride it occasionally. I did the normal stuff, new carb, coil, plug, points and condenser, regulator/rectifier, cables, oil, battery, etc, but it simply leaves 'ya stranded. It has fairly low compression, and the float bowl is full, so it's not running out of fuel. I will have to put some additional work into it. Likely bad wiring or connectors. It shuts off once hot.

The bike really is not worth much effort as it is not in great condition.

My oldest bike is my only bike - a '22 Ducati Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak, purchased new in April '22, pictured with my neighbor's '22 BMW S1000XR at Washington Park in Anacortes, WA:

That has to be the cleanest '86 600 Ninja in existence.
Always garaged...I think around 15 or 16k miles currently. I've thought about putting it up on Bring a Trailer... but I don't need the money...and I have many found memories riding it.
