    err the head gasket is leaking....you hearing this?
  2. Airhead
    the head gasket is duff, you shouldnt be using it like this or you risk damaging the head. Buy genuine yamaha gasket, aftermarket options are often crap

    Greetings Tom

    them Triumphs are superb bikes John, especially white ones

    news to me, the spark test is usually done at the other end of the ignition coil, the HT side, is the plug cap a good tight fit on the HT lead or a bit loose/sloppy?
  6. Airhead
    try another plug, i dont care if it sparked on another bike just try one they're cheap
  7. Airhead
    Well yes, I said to plug it in with any brown, for example you may find a brn at the rear brake switch , shove the jumper in with this brown and then test things as if you were riding the bike as normal...lights...turn sigs...brakes...horn...tail light...tail light with turn sigs etc
  8. Airhead
    you are looking for an improvement, blinkers work better, tail dosnt flash with blinkers etc etc

    Could be dirty switch contacts, it often is to prove...run a jumper wire from battery + to any brown wire connection...and report back
  10. Airhead
    just check it again out of interest on the ohms x 1000 scale
  11. Airhead
    I assume you have the meter switched to the correct range 2k ohms (unless it's auto ranging) and it shows infinite resistance, the same reading as if the probes were not touching anything?

    Bloody hell john, you kept that quiet mate, what's on the horizon then?
  13. Airhead
    wow thats some piece of kit it'll get em clean but still need aquablasting to restore the look like new on the outside
  14. Airhead
    you need to check out all your negative ground points between blk wires and the frame, start with the engine to frame connection, the rectifier to frame connection and the battery negative to frame connection...have a look around these places to see if there are connections here and that they are good connections if there are

    its a diode so unplug it and test for continuity one way then the reverse way, should only have continuity one of the ways
  16. Airhead

  17. Airhead

  20. Airhead

  21. Airhead
    this might be the problem then eh?
  22. Airhead
    you're baffling me now, one minute theres no spark and the next you say the kill is allowing the bike to fire...whats this thread about?
  23. Airhead
    kill needs to be off!
  24. Airhead
    is the neutral light on and the kill switch off?
  25. Airhead
