Default Ds electrical prob's

Hey again guys! Ah ok well the weekend finally got my stock cdi box on my bike and stopped the backfiring, was out for a ride on the weeend with some buddies and had some electrical problems, got it back to my buddies place and found a loose ground wire to the frame but now when the bike gets running the tack is fluctuating all over the place bike doesnt wanna stay running, had a guy make some adjustments to the carb didnt seem like it was getting any fuel. But after all that made it worse would only turn over and no fire, possible the top end is gone??? I amnot sure any suggestionts would be great, Have to do a copression test and go from there, could be electrical? Thanks trotch

A loose ground wire will burn up CDI's and rectifiers... I can't say that is your exact issue, but I know that has happened to others due to poor ground.
