WooHoo!

Just thought I'd let you guys know that my bike is now up and running again. After all the electrical problems and everything else i thought it was, turned out to be the carbs and an air leak or something.. idk.. Spent some money on the nology wires that i probably didn't need, but still a good investment. On the other hand, I will probably be putting an igniter on ebay shortly.

Thanks for all the help guys.

It's for a sprint I believe. But I will double check for you.

EDIT: It came off of a 1996 Sprint 900 with 31k

Puff: That's the igniter you need, as long as it's not off of a california model. Remember what I told you about the side stand switch, you may have to bypass it. tommyturbo2
