• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I recently bought this thinking it would be an easy project bike. Owner said that simple parts to be put back and it should fire up. Well all parts were put together and will not start. The starter turns and turns dashes light up. pull the plug with tank off and and ground it to check spark and nothing...I have checked the trigger coil and it appears to check out with 120 ohms. I am left to assume that it is the ignitor box. Call Dan from Motoxotica and they dont have/make them anymore. Have I hit a dead end? Anybody out there in the Northern California area where I can at least test my supposed dead ignitor?

Spark plug shorted?

Kill switch shorting?

Coil wires tight?

Plug cap on tight?

I did discover that the spark plug wire had separated from the cap but I replaced that with an NGK cap and different coil wire.

I checked the kill switch to the manual and it appears fine, although it does work differently than the Japanese bikes ive worked on.
To me the kill switch appears to be directly wired to the starter switch. if the kills switch is on then no starter spinning.
 
Turns out it was the ignition module and the po wired the trigger coil incorrectly. combination of things made it very hard to deduce. Who knew the polarity of the trigger wires was important? Maybe good info for people who are replacing their trigger coils with aftermarket ones and not getting spark.
 
Any chances a pic of the part you are talking about and the incorrect wiring? It would be helpful for people on here.
