Hey Guys,

I'm not a getting any spark on my bike. I check the ignition coil and the resistance meter just read 1. So i Thought I may have a bad coil. But then I thought about it more and I think that I should be seeing some spark at the points like I normally do. Right now there is no spark at the points.... So maybe I need new points?

This maybe unrelated, but my turn signals stopped blinking as well. I have a new Digital relay, so even with low voltage or a burt out bulb they should work.

Any Ideas?

Battery isn't great. It's reading 11.XX (shitty multi-meter) but I ran jumper cables from my car and had the same symptoms. Also tried kicking it with no spark at plugs or points.

I hope the car's engine was NOT running! That's a great way to blow out the bike's electrical system. Ed

I actually did hook it up with the engine running a couple months ago, but it was running fine after that. This last time I didn't have the engine running.
