Jeffyboy Posted August 1, 2010 Report Posted August 1, 2010 Any help appreciated. My bike after winter storage wont start. Only gets a spark every 10 kicks er so. I have replaced the coil & stator & plugs with the same results. I tested the kill switch and its testing fine. Any ideas? CDI box maybe? Quote

Larry's Shee Posted August 2, 2010 Report Posted August 2, 2010 On my son's 'shee pulled flwheel , cleaned poles on stator (rust) , inside of flywheel, pick-up lugs, set gap. Quote

Or is it a used one off of Ebay? You can use an ohmmeter to check both the stator and coil. If both of those check out OK then the likely problem is the CDI box, assuming you don't have any shorted or damaged wires in your harness. Quote
Jeffyboy Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Posted August 2, 2010 Yepp set the gap, its a new RM stator. I`ll test the OHMs to see if everything checks out. Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Posted August 2, 2010 Try new plug boots, and good luck with the RM stator, as about everything RM, or RS is junk Chinese shit. Quote
Duneman101 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Posted August 2, 2010 do you still have torrs or the park brake? Also check all your wiring for bare spots that maybe grounding. Quote
bansheesandrider Posted August 3, 2010 Report Posted August 3, 2010 (edited) Try new plug boots, and good luck with the RM stator, as about everything RM, or RS is junk Chinese shit. Junk from RM Stator or Ricky Stator has been bad brand new out of the box. Edited August 3, 2010 by bansheesandrider Quote
Jeffyboy Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Posted August 4, 2010 Park brake is off. Any quick ways to test the tors? Quote
12 0 Clock P I M P Posted August 4, 2010 Report Posted August 4, 2010 Park brake is off. Any quick ways to test the tors? yea take it off for like 40 bucks no more problems..........more room and nicer to work with and eliminates a lot of chasing in the future......i dk how to test that out......

Jeffyboy Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Posted November 14, 2010 Still haveing spark issues. No park break , no tors still getting a spark every 10-15 kicks maybe and thats it. Checked all my wiring, could this maybe be a ground issue? im about to replace the harness and ecu anyone else have issues or a wiring diagram that I can reference for all my grounds?Thanks Quote

RM Stators have been known to be bad right out of the box brand new.There is a ground wire in the harness that connects to everything but the voltage regulator. There is a ground wire where the voltage regulator bolts on,there is a ground terminal on the stator itself, the off/run switch gounds to the handlebars. Guys on here say you need to have bare metal where the coil bolts to the frame, BUT I rode mine for 5 years with the coil mounted to a rubber insulated wire harness loom clip wrapped around the frame when the mount broke off. It ran just fine that way. Quote
apeik Posted November 15, 2010 Report Posted November 15, 2010 had the same problem last year, wouldnt start at night/when it was hot, was only getting spark every 10 or so hard kicks, replaced the cdi and havnt had a problem since. mine was a 1995. ended up using a newer 3gg-10 cdi just switched the plug out.
