Hi guys,
I'm picking back up on this project as I've been busy the last 9 months or so with a new business.
I received a bike mostly in boxes but with a title from a friend for free. I'm at the point now where I have a few issues I'm having a hard time thinking through.
I can get the bike to turn over but only if I jump the solenoid. It will turn over all day but I get nothing from the engine. I've been using a bit of starter fluid and I'm not getting any response. The coils have voltage on the two terminals on top. All four are the same voltage. I would assume since I have voltage at the coil I have spark. Could this not be the case? I have the tank off so a nice supply of fresh gas is not there. Thoughts?
I'm in Broomfield CO if there's any locals that would be willing to give a gander.
Mike
