Keith with all the problems with this bike would it not be better to find another ? Use that one for parts ?:laugh: Make sure you didn't leave a Jiffy Pop tin under the tank.:laugh:
the thought has crossed my mind:laugh: so is that your roundabout way of saying you dont know or youre not sure?:laugh:

I'm no electrical guru but oftentimes cutting off the ignition is exactly like the points opening. The result is a last spark through whichever coil was energized. if your secondary side is compromised you might well hear the spark.

I used to think I startled her so now I make sure to talk to her before turning the key ...but ...she...still...farts. I think she is doing it on purpose.
I'd do the coil mod tho to get the power up to the coils for sure.
