Default 2003 polaris 90 sportsman no spark

I am trying to figure out why my kids 90 has no spark, any info will help..
It cranks over but no spark, I tested the top of the ignition coil the 2 post and got a reading of .8 ohm and when I tested the spark plug boot to the top of the coil, my meter was reading OL, does this mean my spark plug boot to the coil is bad? What would I check next? What reading should I get by ohm the coil?

Pull the black wire from the cdi and see if you have spark. If no spark,then check the wires from the stator lading to the cdi. BLACK to White/Red 450 ohms,Black to Black/Red 800 ohms.
Coil tab to ground .2 to .3 ohms. Coil secondary: wire to coil tab 3000 to 4200 ohms(cap removed) plug cap around 5000 ohms. All measurements + or - 20%. Plus here's a link to a 2001 90 manual that would be the same on wiring specs. http://gh-ftp.com/ORV%20Manuals/Pola...96%20-%202001/
