Default Coil testing

Does anyone know how to test an ignition coil and what readings you should have on an 09 Street Glide. Does it need to be on the bike or can it be tested on the bench? Wondering if it is a bad coil issue or a bad crank position sensor. Thanks in advance.

probably already saw this,but this should work for you.Can't guarantee the numbers though,as these are for an older bike.The coil doesn't have to be in the bike.
