Sorry to hear that... At least you have another, running bike to try various electrical items from. Let us know what the culprit was when you find it. Stay positive, you'll track it down.

 

Like the last guy said. It could be more than one item. Why did you weld it and not drill a hole a bolt it up? Post a pic of your welded mount. It's on the frame right. I'm curious.

 

Didn't want to have threads in the bearing part of the roller so welded the bolt to the frame so that the roller would sit on the sleeved part of the bolt were there was no threads I'll post up some pics

 

 

 

im lost on this I tinkered with it for 2 hrs earlier and could not get a spark go out to take some pics and said hell I'll try it one more time and she fired right up rode it for probly 15 20 min around the yard killed it went to sart it again and wouldn't start pulled the plug and again no spark what gives anyone heard of this or any other intermittent problem with no spark.

 

Sounds like a bad ground to me. Or loose or chafed wire? But I don't get how that would happen from welding. Especially if it's intermittent

 

How do you change the roller when it goes bad? Anytime we have to weld on our units at work we always have to unplug the mag

 

The head of the bolt is welded to the frame then comes the sleeved part of the bolt which the roller sits on and then the threads and a nut holds the roller on the bolt, loosen the nut and swap her out just a more permanent solution to drilling and mounting the roller that way. And I don't think it has to do with welding on the frame now that it will start I have seen first hand on vehicles before we're ecus and other electronics can be knocked out if not unplugged before welding on them it's pretty common I will get it tracked down and let you guys know what the problem is.

 

Take a close look at all connections. CDI plug, ground wire(s), plug wire to boot, and even take a look at your kill switch. I have seen the contacts wear/corrode and become intermittent. I would actually start with that....test for spark....flip kill switch on and off a few times ending in the run position and try again. If you have spark its obviously your switch.
