Got it fixed up completely, rode if for about an hour, and traded it for an AR15, then traded the gun for 550 and a 1978 xs750 yamaha.... Lol I'm bike less. But thank you for the info and the help in getting it running perfect! Oh and I still didn't count the teeth on the gears but I smoked my...

Yeah I rode it again last night and had to get used to how to throttle it, it behaves a lot different than a stock bike but I think I can roll into it without it lifting up now

Well got it all good and running, didn't clean it good enough the first time so it won't hardly idle at a stop with the choke off. Gotta clean it again. Double checked what the carb was and it's a 38mm pwk keihin, it won't keep the front end on the ground so that's my next issue

Is there a difference between ES and EG? I doubt it just wondering and awh common you don't wanna see what happens with this old fuel?!? Lol I think I'm gunna have to re clean my carb. The only complaint I have on that is the stock air cleaner boot doesn't fit over the mouth of the carb and I...

Alright got a new coil and CDI in it, local stores didn't have my B8EG plug I needed so I'm stuck with a weak spark now until tomorrow lol. But it fires now lol. It also has like 5 year old 32:1 klotz super and high octane fuel in it :/ sooo gotta get new

Ahh the glory of being a diesel tech and not a gas engine tech lol... I still should know this though. Thank you. Safe to say if you lose a CDI box you might as well buy a coil as well?

Kinda can see the adapter there

From searching and searching on google I was under the impression that the early model original coils had a with that connected to orange as a bullet style connect, and the updated new style coil has the spade... My 95 harness has the bullet style connection but a spade adapter... I'll find some...

Okay that helps a lot! It just throws me off with that primary test lol does anyone know WHY they have continuity to the ground?

No I thought if it all ohmed out fine then it wouldnt be an issue? I don't have the tool but can buy one if my new coil and CDI don't do the trick... Being it's only three things I'll replace them all if I have to.

That's what I was thinking but I'm just making sure that there is really supposed to be continuity across the coil power and coil ground?!?

Bump

Googled it and didn't find much. It seems eBay and other sites selling coils like to create breaks in the years that they will match. Were there differences in coils between 97-98?

the bike in my avatar has them, 1995

Ok got my harness compressed, next question, this is my ohm test across these two points, from what banshee said before that should be open correct? I'm getting .3-.5 ohms
