brandaha Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 :blink: HELLO ALL!!! MY NAMES BRANDON AND I AM OF COURSE A NEWB, BUT I NEED HELP. I am going to be buying a 87 or 88 fz 600. its only got 5,000+ miles on it. i know about dirt bike, however this just so happens to be my first street bike. Needless to say i am super excited but i just don't want it to be a money pitt. so heres the deal when i stick the key in i will get cranks and no spark, I was reading last night. and saw another guy had a simular problem. the cdi on my bike was just replaced part bought from ebay. and same with the magneto coil I believe that the name. the other guy said he replaced those same part and got good results so since I already have what the heck should I do next. any help would be greatly appreciated I have a chopper mechanic here in town i just am not ready to get rapped on the service fee's.I would love to get on the road before all my good weather's gone i live in washington and its cold alot but springs sorta here and summer can be short Brandon thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
