How I got here. The magnets on the flywheel came loose and destroyed the stator. I got a new flywheel and stator, installed it and she started right up. After running for a few minutes she died. I couldn't get it started so I back tracked. I found out the flywheel rubbed through my pick up (Pulse coil) wires and grounded out. I taped them and tucked them back better, still wouldn't start. So I switched the pick up to the old one, still no start also gaped to .4. I have replaced the CDI, ignition coil, wire and plug cap and I still get the same results.


Coil primary side: .9 specs .3
Coil secondary: 0 with cap 0 through cap 0 specs 6300 with cap 113000 just cap 5000

Capacitor charge coil:
green to black/red 0
green to red 3.7

Pick up/pulse coil
white to white/red:132.0

Coil mount to engine:.2 specs 0-.2

I also disconnected the black CDI wire for kill switch and the speedometer with no luck.
When I try to start and test the plug wire (no cap) I get .1-.2 volts

 

Stator doesn't show what the specs are in the manual wiring diagram.If it's a Chinese aftermarket stator that could be the problem.Some are hit and miss.

Green to Black/Red 446 ohms
Green to Red 1.6 ohms
Pick up coil White to White/Red 97 ohms

 

Yes its a Chinese one. It ran fine before the flywheel cut the pick up wires. If the stator did become faulty would that cause it not to have any spark? I don't understand why I have no resistance on the secondary coil or cap, the new one or the oem. Could there be a fuse that popped when the pick up was grounded?

I really appreciate you commenting on this. You have helped me install a cam, rebuild the top end after cam pin failed, awd switch problems, etc and we have never talked haha. My bike is cursed. Thanks

 

I've had to replace a lot of stators when the green and red/black were out of spec. Plus the pick up coil is out of the allowable 10% +/- range also. Coil primary,tab to ground .03 ohms.No fuses in the ignition system. Does kinda sound like the ignition system is cursed..

 

When I used the oem pick up coil it was .97 but I guess that wouldn't matter if the stator can block it from getting spark. Looks like ill have to break down and buy another stator.

 

I cant be to mad, I found a really good deal.

 

I know they're not cheap but either Ricks or Ricky stators have a good reputation unlike the cheap Chinese stators. I've used both places but on the Magnum 500 Rickys is 50 bucks cheaper than Ricks.Ricky Stator - Products Just in case you don't want to give a Chinese made stator another chance. Oem stator is close to 500 bucks.

 

Taking a chance on used electronics is almost as bad as some of the Chinese junk that's offered on ebay. You might get lucky though and find a good one.
