I have no spark to the plugs does this mean I need a new coil or contact breaker?

check to see if you have any battery voltage first before you start throwing parts at it then do all the trouble shooting steps that are in your manual. and if you don't have a manual get one it doesn't which one matter as long as its in english

CHECK all your fuses,then make sure your kill switch is working.You should have 12 volts at your coils too ground whenever the ignition is turned on.

Thanks Tim I will do that, I have NEVER messed with a motorcycle and it has been an experience, I have enjoyed working on it myself and learning about it. I would like to try to figure it out and get it running myself. This site has been excellent and I appreciate it, I will get back with you when I get the tester and hopefully get this thing on track to having fun!
