sandman101 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Posted April 20, 2014 I was riding in the dunes this weekend, spun a donut at pretty high RPMs (not sure if that's the cause, just when it happened) and it spit and sputtered and quit. I pulled the plugs off and was not getting spark to either cylinder. I tried kicking it a few times and it would give a few thumps but nothing lasting more than a second. TORS has been deleted and the wires are still spliced well, bike is mostly stock. I figure its maybe a stator gone bad but where would be the best place to start tracking the problem. Also how can you test if the stator is what is bad. Any input would be great, Thanks. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted April 20, 2014 Report Posted April 20, 2014 Somewhere on here is a download manual that has the specs. What have you done or checked? Quote
sandman101 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Posted April 21, 2014 A bad stator will have no resistance right? I started with checking the stator resistance and first thing was black to yellow and if I did it correctly it was reading just about zero ohms. Quote
BUILDER Posted April 21, 2014 Report Posted April 21, 2014 Black to Yellow is lighting so that will only tell you if you have light power or not. Need to check the other wires to see if the ignition side is working or not. Quote
blowit Posted April 22, 2014 Report Posted April 22, 2014 Green/red = stator ignition coil. Green/red striped = pulse coil. Both need checked. Quote
sandman101 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Posted April 24, 2014 Figured it out, the black wire that goes from the box to the coils had a splice that had come apart. Took a while to find it though. Thanks for your help guys. Quote
