Ignition problem?

<< < (5/5)

Green Fiend:
Thank you, I don't trust the dealers either!! I'll run the tests tonite and post results. I'm going to try to find a pulled today to see if I can pull the flywheel. I'll let you know. Thanks again

Polar-Bus:
FYI.....

ALWAYS check the simple things FIRST before you start assuming expensive components and spending hundreds of dollars on perfectly good parts.  go over the wiring harness and look for a broken or chaffed wire. In my experiences either you have spark or you don't (if a component has failed).  Granted you could have a suspect stator, but it's a possibility the external coild is bad and failing when the engine gets hot.  Disconnect the kill switch wires and drive the bike this will rule out a grounding kill switch issue.
