Just picked up a 2008 Big Bear 250. It was sitting for about 1 year it's definitely a project. Currently chasing down a no spark issue. Imagine that lol 

Tons of info around the forum. I look forward to learning!

 Looks good, Should be a fun project , it seems to be all there, hopefully its not the CDI, that could be expensive, what have you done and found so far.

 yeah, it's all there. I've been going thru the electrical diagrams and troubleshooting process. I made it to testing the stator and found I'm missing 2 wires on the 4 wire plug. Looks like something chewed em. So, I bought a new stator; should be here this week. Once that's on I'll continue down the list. I did find some more broken wires that go to the foot brake switch, I'll splice those back together also. 

 

Maybe I'll start a build thread to keep up with everything 😂😂

Sounds good, hopefully one of the broken wires will be to the pickup coil, then, fixing that will get you sparking again. A build thread would be good, i did that with my Big Bear, it kind of keeps things interesting, and for me it kept me motivated, mine was in a lot worse shape than yours, i had to figure out all the wiring, it was all ripped out.

Welcome!  This is gonna sound dumb, but when I was chasing a no-spark issue in my Big Bear... it ended up being the battery.  The battery would take a charge and appear good on the meter, but still didnt have enough bang to get the job done.  Swapped in a new battery and bingo, problem solved.
