First if the brown wire you are asking about is the one to the Reg/rect unit, then yes you do need to use it. The stock system on the F1 650 was a single phase permanent magnet system. That made use of a sense wire to determine if the battery needs charging or not. The brown wire is a switched voltage wire, and it is what controls how much voltage goes to the battery. It functions as a sense wire that the reg/rect uses to determine the voltage in the system and then either pass voltage to the battery to charge it or to shunt the voltage to ground.
As to the no spark issue, are you points set correctly and not grounding out on the spring? Are the spark plug cables tight and clean? Are the spark plug caps tight and do they pass the idependence/ohm test?
