Motorrad, Is that premium pump with Ethanol? I assume so since that is the only thing most of us have access to.

I tested my stator coils and - Blk/Wh-Blk/Yel= 318.4 Ohm , Re/Wh-Blk/Yel= 10.3 Ohm
The first is out of range by 88.4 ohms respectivley. And the second is on the high end of within range.
SO what is the fix for this? What can I or need I do about this?
Also the flywheel looks a little rough, chk it out.
Here's the head and cylinder too.
What do ya think look O.K.? this bolt looks a little nasty!

make sure you put anti - seize on those bolts!

Or, PM kaw rider as he has a source to get them repaired to the correct specs.
From what I can see your cylinder looks ok but you should mic it to be certain.
I have seen a lot of fly wheels that looked like that but they worked fine.
Clean it up and it should be fine.
Clean the threads up and use a anti corrosive on them.
All is my humble opinion based on what I see.
