On The Edge
So i have a 79 xs with boyer ignition, hhb pma, capacitor obviously running no battery. I have the bike wired up and everything works great. Brake lights, ignition, speedo backlight, but occasionally when i turn on my headlight it kills the ignition. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. I go to kick the bike over again and the lights come on as the motor spins but i get 0 spark. Shut the lights off, kick it, starts fine. Like i said sometimes i can turn the headlight on and it will run fine. Rpm does not affect this at all. Its like my ignition is getting grounded out somehow. I have tried a bates style headlight and a low draw led light so i dont think it is pulling too much voltage. Has anyone had something like this happen before? My wiring diagram is identical to the second picture on this thread:http://www.chopcult.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17549
