ITs dark out , so havent looked hard , but starter is cranking , battery has good charge , but wont fire. Is there a common fault electrically that would be causing the problem?
checked spark.. nothing.
Changed coil , retested.. nothing
Changed regulator , retested, nothing
Changed black box thing under the seat , retested , nothing
checked all those parts against working items and all multimeter readings were the same. My money now is on the stator not giving the trigger signal, even though it tested as closed circuit. I'll pull the covers off both bikes tomorrow and test them against each other , maybe swap them and retry starting it.
Apparently Im slightly wrong , its not the stator , its the inductive pickup thats died , the 2 wires that are in the same sheath as the 3 white charge wires... Called a guy and he as one for me for $50!
