I have had bad coils ohm good. I think it is when they get hot is the problem, or simple vibration .

Probably the carburetor from reading everything. But if you can capture it when cranking and not starting, if it is CKP, there will be no spark.

I have a timing light clip on I attach to spark plug wire. Tie it to bars till you catch no start, no flash. However, like said, count be coil then.

PS. As a suggestion, always add a little more though in Post Title. Search is useless in the future for what will be learned here.


And for sure...
Welcome, Bradley.

Hope you enjoy your ride here.


Only as a suggestion, create a signature
line for your
bike, year, model, and all the
code letters.

You can add that bike photo to the signature too.
And be sure to make your next new post over in the new member welcome area to say hello..
