sstaton1983 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 im working on a friends j arm banshee.it has no spark when you kick it over,it will only spark if you spin the motor over fast.when it starts it will stay running as long as you keep the rpms above 2 to 3k. he put on a new stator and it didnt make a difference.i swapped the coil off one of my banshees it didnt make a difference.i have split his harness open checked connections and grounds,i ohmed his harness from cdi to coil,and kill switch wires to cdi.my next guess would be a cdi(my cdi box's are newer and defferent colored wires)thats the onley thing i havnt tried.would a cdi cause no spark at low rpms?

camatv Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 probably a bad flywheel. if the weights in the wheel are getting weak or cracked they wont produce enought juice till ya spin it up. OR it has a RZ street bike flywheel on it. they do the same thing,. also double check your pickup gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ticktock Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Check the pick up clearance. See how far it's out. It should b .020. When te motor spins fast th magnetic field gets bigger and it would do that. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
