Pete, do you happen to know the primary and secondary resistance spec for this coil? 17-6903 "high output coil". i'm suspecting mine has gone bad.

Does anybody have the specs for this thing???? I suspect mine is bad. i'm getting a black plug that follows the wire. i'm just looking for the ohm spec for this honestly. Listed below you will find the part number from Mikes XS and the link to the page. Thanks in advance you guys! this forum is...

Ok so i measured the resistance and it was 23.1K. that seems to be in order. I'm putting new plugs in it again tonight and switching the plug wires one more time and running one mre test to ensure that the problem follows the plug. any other suggestions?

My fellow 650ers' I will start with this. I recently took my bike a well know and recommended Chicago mechanic. He helped me tune my carbs and was alot of help. I dropped my bike off and picked it up about a week later. When i picked it up he told me "i couldn't get any spark to test the...

i mean pamco* shit sorry!

5twins- i'm trailering this puppy down to fla. on thursday i will be working on this thing for a few days. your test will be one of the firsts. thanks for your help!!!!

XSleo: I just tried your test and yes, I'm getting spray through the pilot jet. It's a black foul, it's dry but not fluffy. I used a gauge, 100R and 105L. I didn't buy a rebuild kit. I bought the needles and jet you spec'd for me. This is what I got: 1 x #122.5 Main Jet (Pr.) Sm. Round type...

ok fellas, http://www.amckayltd.com/carbguide.pdf <------ so after reading this thing like 5 or 6 times i'm still having a little trouble with my bike. i can get it to start but it idles really fast and only when the choke is on. as soon as i turn off the choke it dies. i sometimes i try to...

5 twins, the cam chain?

yeah mikes XS said it would work fine but you would have to trim the rubber. so i did. I know its less than ideal but its working. I will get better ones in the future but for now i'm just trying to get the bike running and on that note upon further investigation my cam chain tensioner was...

soo here is my current carb set up. as you can see i had to cut out part of the rubber lip on the filter mount. I'm still waiting for the right needles and jets to get to me in the mail. as we all know this is the hardest part for the entire experience of building a motorcycle. If you guys have...

Bonesaw, Yeah bought all new stock jets and needles and i'm going to give the carbs another cleaning for sure. Its a pain for sure but it'll be worth it in the end. I like your taste my man. you got that big wheel in the front! Looking real nice!

here's a pic of the the ol' girl :thumbsup:

ok so I looked at my carb rebuild kit receipt. It bough this thing off of ebay. (i'm an idiot) WEll you live and you learn. I will be purchasing the correct components asap and installing them asap. I will keep you guys posted. XSLeo you're a man of much knowledge and its a privilege being able...

UPDATE: I had the bike running long enough to put it in gear and ride around the warehouse. It started several times. But its def still not running like it should. I started it with the choke on. then once it started i turned off the choke and feather'd the throttle to keep it going. Jake, I...

Jake, So far ive ran the bike a total of 2 mins. haha it hasn't really been running really. I also am runing pandemonium Hot rod pipes. So its a much shorter pipe and i know this with def effect the way the carbs will behave. I'm not quite sure how though. (i'm such a rookie) XSLeo: I did buy...

ok gang. I feel like i'm hitting the home stretch. So here's what i've got so far. I have spark. And i have started the bike. I started it several times yesterday.(11/18/13) After i started it (with the choke on) it would fire up and once i turned off the choke off it would slowly die. I would...
