so, manual incorrect then?

ha ha, thank you :-) I've got hold of a manual and it stated a side stand switch with a illustrated pic and everything but could I find the damn thing? Now I know why, because it didn't have one! I'm purchasing a multimeter today as I'm sure my leccy friend is getting sick of me finding other parts for him to check! :-)

ok, sounds good, do I kick start it over for the current check or just have ignition and run switch on? by the way, I cannot locate the side stand switch so I'm thinking it has been removed...

thanks for the feedback, OK, so I can rule out the YPVS so that's another tick and all wiring lumes appear to be OK. I'm thinking CDI, stator, side stand switch or neutral switch. Thoughts my friend, can I rule any of these out too? appreciate your help its been bl00dy brilliant! :-)

Many thanks for your replies, I've run a multimeter and all appears to be fine but could not check the ypvs or cdi unit as they are sealed but it does look like someone has had the ypvs unit apart as was glued together so could either of these units be causing the problem and if so, how do you check them? Thanks!

Excellent, thank you

Brilliant, thank you!

Yes, I hear a servo type sound when I turn on the ignition so I guess that works. Do you recommend a pocket tester for the run switch or would I be able to tell visually by taking it apart? thanks for your help!

Thanks Cynic, some good advice, thank you. I have done the plugs and leads and they're like new. I will try the orange lead suggestion for sure. When you say the run switch is good, do you mean on or it could be faulty as I'm curious about this too? When I put my other bikes onto run they make a noise as if to connect or prepare for start but the TZR doesn't but I guess it could be that it's a kick start rather than electronic as my 4 strokes?

Hi all, I am the new and proud owner of a blue and yellow TZR 250 2MA on a 1988 plate. At the moment I have no spark going to the HT leads and was curious if anybody had a good idea what the issue is? I have the tank off and am easily able to get to the box which I'm assuming is the coil pack in which the leads connect to etc. I'm no qualified mechanic as you have probably guessed but want to make this my little project. Thank you!

Hi all, I am the new and proud owner of a blue and yellow TZR 250 2MA on a 1988 plate. It's in pretty good original condition and I plan to make it good all round and take it for the occasional spin. I own a few other bikes but they are 4 strokes and fancied a 2 stroke to my collection.

Thanks for having me and I look forward to you experts helping me solve this issue in due course! J
