I rode the bike the last week in normal condition. The other day I went to go ride, bike would not start. Quickly found out neither side is producing a spark at all. With the key on I have 12v at the points, ignition fuse, plug wires (is that normal?). I looked in my clymer manual but was very unclear about testing the coils. The resistance of the condensers were around 50 on the 20k setting on my ohmmeter (high?) And I couldn't get them to spark like the manual says. I picked 2 up from napa but wont be able to install them till after the 4th. Am I heading in the right direction? Would it be likely for both condensers to go out simultaneously?
