TT600R wont start
Hi fellow riders
my TT600R wont start and it is doing my head in. I am preparing this bike to be licensed and haven't started it in about 3 months. Anyhow 3 months ago it started first time. Now I don't even get a spark at the spark plug !
Before starting
1. sidestand is up so sidestand switch does not affect
2. ignition key switch is on
3. kill switch on handlebar is on.
bike has fuel, clean airfilter and all electrical connectors are clean and tight.
I can't understand why it is not getting a spark to the spark plug when i kick it over.
The only thing i can think of that might be improperly installed is the black earth lead that is bolted to the frame under the ignition coil ?
the bike is a 2001 model TT600R belgarda.
Does anyone know a simple test to determine if i am getting power to the ignition coil when i kickstart it. i have a multimeter to perform any tests.
Where is the black earth lead bolted to for the ignition coil mean to be ?. I have between the ignition coil unit and the frame - the forward most bolt hole that fastens the ignition coil to the frame?
thankyou in advance to anyone who may be able to help me get this bike to start
Cheers
Doug
