I know flyboy just posted a similar question but didn't see my answer there. Also used search and tech. So here it goes:
'81 XS650, factory elecronic ignition, coil. Kick only...always starts first or second kick.
Rode all day yesterday with no problems to speak of.
Got up this morning and won't start. No spark to plugs.
I have 13.24v to coil and 11.2K ohms across secondarys. Tried a spare coil (origins unknown) and had my 13.24v and 12.6K 0hms across secondaries. This is through the coil and wires without caps.
Here is my question ... What should the reading be across the secondaries??? Is 11.2-12.6k ohms good? i.e. are these coils good?
ODD additional info..have no idea how it could be related, but after my ride yesterday, I had a kickstand problem and my bike fell over...only the handlebars hit..nothing major and no wiring to handlebars....just weird coincidence that problem started right after I guess....
