Hi all,

Picked up a 94 Ninja 250 for a cafe racer project.
Bike sat for years. I get no spark to the plugs when out and grounded to the engine. Motor cranks (so I assume safety switches are working correctly), but no spark.

Added a new battery and plugs in regards to electrical.

With the ignition on I'm getting 12v to the left side plugs (red and black wires) before the coil. I only get .8v on the right side plugs (red and green wire) before the coil.

Even with 12v before the coil on the left side I get no spark.

I've read nearly every post concerning spark issues and the how to guides, bit can't find any results. Previous owner said he had to remove the ignition to make a key, but everything from the ignition looks to be hooked up. I'm at a loss.

Any help or suggestions? Thanks!!!

Mike
