Measured the VAC between the two wires and at idle only had 23.4VAC and at about 5 to 6k had 32.5VAC.
Resistance Values of the Stator Contacts as measured HOT: 20 minutes after riding.
1/5 95-116 124.3
2/5 81-99 108.4
3/5 185-225 233.0
4/5 95-116 122.0
6/5 81-99 107.5
7/5 185-225 234.7
8/9 77-95 96.4
5/9 387-473 491
they all seem to be about 8 Ohms above the max...I think this is ok?
Voltage at the Battery running is 13.85V Cold = 12.85 (same as always)
Other Items to note:
-no vaccum leaks
-spark confirmed on both sides
-fuel to both carbs (carb bowls drained)
Plug Condition after limping home:
Left Golden Brown
Right Wet, Black, Sooty.
Plug Condition prior to riding:
Left: Golden Brown
Right: Golden Brown
Recent Maintenance added some distilled water to battery such that the levels were at the mid points of the High & Low all the way across.
Road the bike last night--it was UNREAL how well it performed--I am guessing Tuned really well.
I know I have spark, maybe I have weak spark...and the bike will run, but just not very well...could it be that the CDI is failing, and my output voltage is not high enough?
