It was worth a try.
Man, I just want to haul @ss down there and see what's goin' on. This remote control bike repair wears me out....
So, it was running on 2 & 3 before you checked the pickups and now it won't start at all. Right?Greg

Tested it a second time...1.8 from both primaries, but secondaries with and with out plug caps, nothing....is there anything on the bike that could cause this? The numbers were good the other day...I haven't changed or fired the bike up since then other than mess with the cables...with the plug caps off I get in spec numbers for the 2 n 4 coil, however put the plug caps on and it jumps up to 130 ish....ugh...my new coils appear to ohm in spec so im gonna change those and see what happens...79 XS11 special "Loki" - homemade 4-2 exhaust, pod filters, rebuilt forks with progressive springs, tkat fork brace, progressive shocks, rebuilt all brakes and MC's, rebuilt carbs with #142.5 main and #42.5 pilot, a custom front and chin fairing, and a handmade set of saddlebags....

No prob. Glad to help as much as I can.
Just get frustrated sometimes trying to do repairs with a mouse rather than a wrench.Greg

What grounds the coils? The bolts that run through (allthread is what I have) that secure the coils in place, is that the grounding for it?79 XS11 special "Loki" - homemade 4-2 exhaust, pod filters, rebuilt forks with progressive springs, tkat fork brace, progressive shocks, rebuilt all brakes and MC's, rebuilt carbs with #142.5 main and #42.5 pilot, a custom front and chin fairing, and a handmade set of saddlebags....

Have you got power to the 2 red/white wires going to the coils when the ignition switch is on?Greg

The coils circuits are grounded through the wiring, the bodies don't require ground.Greg

I know you have a VOM, you got a test light? Either will work. Ground one lead and stick the other in the 3 way connector.Greg
