    I have an 01 WR 125 and last weekend it died from loss of spark on the trail. I replace the magneto because it had a short and I thought that was the problem but today when I installed the new one, I still have no spark. I can literally hold my hand in the end on spark plug not feel any electricity or zap. I am thinking maybe its the CDI but instead of wasting another $90 can anyone give me some insight on anything else it could be?

    Did you check to make sure that your kill button has not gone bad?

    Figured it out runs like a champ, bad connector, its amazing what one bad connection can do.

    Throw a new spark plug boot on it for the $5 it costs. Make sure the lead has good contact.

    Does it only die when warm? My brother had that on a cr250 was really hard to diagnose being so intermittent. But after some multi meter work and a best guess it turned out to be the cdi.

    Would even start, one of the ground was not connected properly... Bike flat out rips now, I have a 2014 WR 250 and enjoy riding this old 125 more because I can push it to the limits.
