I assumed that since my starter is turning over the solenoid was fine?there is just no spark.

Cdi = brand new Stator = replaced wires from coil to connector, tested resistance to factory specs! Producing voltage Pickup coil = producing voltage Regulator=brand new Ignition coil and plug=brand new Kill switch is allowing it to turn over so obviously not an issue... I've traced every single wire on this bike and rectified any bad spots and insured proper placement/connection on every single one. I'm lost guys helpa brotha out?

How many of you guys bring old bikes back from the grave? I'm new to the site but have been finding trash quads and bringing them back to life for years. Just curious if anyone else prefers riding an old bike they revived overa newer one?

Found an old warrior next to a dumpster in an alley in North St. Louis. Took it home and started messing with it, got it running and took it to the country that weekend. I don't think I've sat on a dirt bike since.

My old man and I have a long going friendly competition to see who can wind up with the best bike for the least amount of $. This started about 20 years ago when we bought 3 1970 Yamaha Enduros that had been sitting behind an old ladies shed for over a decade. They had been sitting for soo long we literally had to dig them out because they had sunk in the mud up to the forks and frames. We paid $50 for the trio and spent 2 months wrenching and restoring. Replacement parts were either fabricated or found in a bone yard. By the time it was done we had $90 invested in 3 of the best running Vinta

Is an 88, I'm boggled... I download the Clymer from here I'm a day of away from pulling every wire and redoing the whole thing...

Really, Nothing, Not even a smart alleck "you got a wiring issue."

Trying to resurrect an old Bayou and I found that there is a constant 12v coming out of the plug wire? This is even happening with cdi removed.
