It's how choppers got started. Once you've done unbolted everything that isn't working, what you have left has fewer bits to come adrift.
I remember the old "Triumph Point Tool" -- a matchbook. Use the scratch strip to polish up the points, and the thickness of the cover was sufficient for setting the gap. Plus, one had a full book of matches to set the bike on fire in case the damn thing still wouldn't start.
