How's the compression? checked the valve clearances? The sparkplug cap contains a resistor that can fail. The cap unscrews from the sparkplug wire and it can be checked with a multimeter. It should have at least 5000 ohms resistamce.

www.z1enterprises.com sell a good replacement coil.

Get the EMGO four Ohm OEM coil from Z1 Enterprises for $36. I'm running it on my 750 twin. Works better than original.

oops.... probably not the coil. A twin can't fire on only one side because the spark plugs are wired in series on the coil output. If either side has an open, it kills spark for both.
