    are you sure you checked source coil on the stator properly? did you check it agaist ground to see if it is shorting itself out?

    yes..its not the stator..thats the oem one..it reads 285 and the book says at least 275..im thinkin its either somethin in the kill switch or the pulse generator...everything is mounted and connected properly..i just dont understand it....i really dont know..all i know is that my light works when you kick it over but the engine doesnt get any power from the black and red striped wire...thats what they told me...but thats the stator wire which is connected right...i may bring them my other one in and see what happens

    Come to TF05 and bring the 200x. If needed I can bring a bunch of spare parts and get you spark. Just need to let me know before Monday if you need me to bring the parts.

    Agreed... What a guy. When all fails... Howdy can fix it.

    I guess I was thinking of someone else on these boards about the stator

    I can't figure this one out to save my life. What's with those mechanics anyway? The guys up at the one shop near me have there heads up there arses.

    howdy that would be great but i dont think i can go the way things are goin...ill let you know tho...i was gonna pm you about maybe being able to do that but you offered so ill take you up on it if i can go...i know i will probly need a stator...i dunno how much money i can bring cause right now i only got 40 bucks...lol i asked my mom if i could have about 50 if i can go...dunno if itll happen tho... anyway...ill see if i can get it outa the shop..i paid them 50 bucks so i wouldnt spend my money and not have it to give to them later..im a good thinker..but i didnt think tf05 was the 9-13th...i thought it was the 15-19th for some reason...which meant id get paid again before tf05...but that didnt work out...so i got alittle money and hopefully my mom will gimme some to take...i really dont think its the stator but what else could it be?? we changed the cdi box, and coil...the only thing left is the pulse rotor and the stator we checked but i dunno...it could be anything with that bike...im going to bring the shop a few parts tomarrow and test them out..i dunno if they will let me work on it but they might...they are nice guys at this shop..not a bunch of a holes like honda...

    Yes, there is a bracket that bolts to the caliper and the swing arm.
