My old 110 use to do that every couple weeks and it was always the connection between the spark plug boot and wire. The boot on my wire screwed on and off and it would get loose and gunked up. Make sure you check for shorts in your on/off switch and wires also.

Did you change your plug? then check your plug wire, it may be burned out at one end or the other.
If that doesn't work start at your CDI and check resistance forwards through all the connections, including the kill swich and to the coil,

You can get the resistance ranges at deepa.reconranger.com Honda manuals
go through it step by step you'll figure it out preety quick.
