dyna ignition.. n was created by dkoz
I'm back for more help. my bike to me has proven that you can polish a turd:
I've put new Dyna coils..wires..plugs..
No spark on cylinders 2 -3..
Coils at three ohm
Test light lights up when it should buy timeing mark.
Spin 180 another good light when it hits timeing mark.
Ignition was replaced with a good used one from shop because original one that was in the bike somehow busted and was rubbing on cam making these rub marks...
I'm about to replace these as well but before I do I'm turning to you guys again..
I've checked wireing and all seems well and as simple as it seems I'm having a hard time understanding how to see if pickups are working

Ohm Checking Pickup(Pulsing) Coils You'll need to buy, or borrow a multimeter, to check the pick up coils.

The pickup coils on the Kawasaki’s with the factory supplied electronic ignition can sometimes fail or become intermittent due to heat and vibration.

1.Trace back from where the pick up coils are mounted,(under a right side CD sized cover) locate and disconnect a small 4 pin connector. Using a multi-meter set on OHMS and range of X 100 check between the BLUE and BLACK wires(#1 and #4 sparkplug wires) for between 360- 540 OHMS.

2.For #2 and #3 sparkplugs the wire colors will be YELLOW and RED, again 360-540 OHMS.

3.If the pickup coils are suspect of failing due to heat, they can be stressed using a hair dryer without the need of the engine running.

4.A replacement set of pickup coils might be obtained from a dealer who serviced the police Kawasaki’s.

5. If replacement pickup coils are not available, your next choice would be to order a Dyna “S” electronic ignition system from www.z1enterprises.com It replaces the IC igniter with a smaller module located where the mechanical ignition advancer was mounted.

6.Checking with Kawasaki.com website has determined that the Pick up(pulsing) coils are available . The pulsing coil # is 59026-1133 and replaces the older # 1002, 1012 which were used from the MKII motors until the 2005 P24.

You may want to try swapping the coils to see if the problem moves to cylinders 1&4. If the problem moves, you have a bad coil - easy fix. If the problem does not move you know both coils are ok, so you have eliminated that variable. Ed
