Default Spark Issues

Okay, I've about reached my wits end.

Purchased a Roketa 110cc atv from a friend that did not fire. First I replaced the CDI and battery. I could get it to fire but not maintain an idle for more than a few seconds, and the starter ended up dying on me so i replaced it and cleaned the carb while i was waiting for the new starter to come.

With the new starter it cranks strong, but now there is no spark. So I replaced the coil. Still no spark. I have bypassed the brake lever kill switch as well as the tether kill switch with no new results.

So, I'm wondering about the keyless remote box. I disconnected it and still nothing. The only thing left that is part of the electrical system is the stator, but I dont wanna keep replacing parts blindly.

I cant figure out why it would spark one day, then after replacing he starter it won't spark. This atv is supposed to be a 14th birthday present for my nephew a week ago.

Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanx in advance.

So, i got it to start by disconnecting the kill switch wire from the CDI. after trying to get it to idle, the starter solenoid is now just clicking instead of turning the starter. Battery charger says its at about 75% charge.

1. Is there a way i can keep the kill switch disconnected and still turn the machine off?
2. Is they starter solenoid just getting too warm?
3. Any tips or hints to help get it running smooth?

thanx again

NEWEST UPDATE:
Just put a solenoid from another engine on it and still only a click. Battery charger says its at 100% charge

either not enough volts are going down the wires or the connections ain't making a good enough connection. measure it with an ohm meter/voltmeter to verify correct voltage delivery. did you check the left hand slider kill switch? those can fail and kill spark.
