1985 Big Red 250 ATC - No Spark
I just put a new stator and magneto in and when I checked for spark it was good. When I went to start it acted like I was getting no spark and, in fact, when I pulled the plug - no spark. I tried another CDI and had spark, but, again, when I put it in the cylinder and tried to fire it up - no more spark. It ran great before and no other changes. I'm beating my head against the wall and if anyone has a clue I'd sure appreciate it.

I'll give it a try. The only thing I could think of was magneto clearance. I had an 1/8" where the magneto just wouldn't go any further. I tried an impact wrench after sliding it on over key way, and I tried tapping on it as I torqued it down to suck it in further but it wouldn't go any further. When I finally said screw it and put it back together I thought I might have a clearance problem w/the case but there wasn't. I called a couple of Honda shops and they couldn't answer the question on the specs either. I don't know if this would be the cause or not, but I will try a new plug and wiggle the wire as I check for spark.

seems like all these silly bikes are looking for ground and will get slutty to find them anywhere they can. I've seen them run/spark with the lights on but not without. I've got one right now that's driving me crazy too so I just bought another one yesterday so I have something to ride while I fix this one
