this just seems to get worse! I pulled out the fuses & checked them visually before but without a test light. yet when i tested with a test light an hour ago i found one dead fuse. i replaced it (it wasnt blown just looked a bit powdery on the legs causing a bad contact.
fired the bike up and it ran fine for a minute or so.
i shut it down to try clearing the error code 33, but no luck there.
I tried starting it again and got it to fire but ran roughly and kept backfiring when trying to get the revs up.

I dropped the plug out and it was pretty carboned up (not a very old plug but the carbon looked fresh).

tried a new plug but no spark at all now!

I started thinking maybe both coils ive been using are bad. yet all tested out with the same ohms readings. and I know 2 came of running bikes.

I unplugged the coil wires and checked them with a test light and theres current coming in with the key turned on. when i hit the start button the test light fluctuates. weird
I connected the coil back up and dropped the cap off to check the spark going to the engine via the HT lead, no spark even there.

ive tried 2 different plug caps and leads along with 2 brand new spark plugs.

how can i have power at the coil and yet no spark at the plug?

this is really irritating me!
