Sounds like a dead battery to me. You can find the battery type on our hosts on line parts book.

The battery doesn't do much on a kick start bike. As long as it can supply a voltage to the coil for a minute or so when starting you'd never notice it deteriorating. It could have been 95% knackered for years. Now it's died.

I had similar problems last year. Spent ages chasing wires for shorts and broken connections, all to no avail.
Put a new battery on it and all my problems disappeared..
