Hi all,

I have a none starting Hawk/Storm. I changed the ccts to manuals, reset the timings on both front and back cams and put it all back together. I have her turning over, fuel there but no spark.🥵

I checked the voltage of the coils and they're fine thank God. However, I checked the continuity of the spark plug connectors and I found that back cylinder one was open circuit.
Did I read somewhere or am I delusional, that if there is no spark at the back cylinder neither will fire?

Thanks in advance, I'm sick of getting the bus with the unwashed masses😂

 

Not true.

Twist the wire tight in the cap, they just unscrew. You can cut off a 1/4" and rethread it in. With the plug in the cap, clip a double-ended alligator clip jumper to the plug threads and ground on the bike and crank it over and watch for a spark with the lights off.

Better yet go to CBR600 stick coils; do a search...

Still have 5.2 gallon tank as stopped using it because my prostate wouldn't let me empty the stock tank before my bladder.

At the now long gone Highland House in Highland Park, IL (yes that HP where the July 4th mass shooting took place). On a good Sunday 400 riders would congregate.

Going to buddies to enlarge spare tank to 5.2 gallons.

When you ride at night, wear white

Can you say mods up the wazoo?

3rd set of clip-ons after Helibars and VFR bars, Tommasellis,

Now unobtainum 3D 4-way adjustable clip-ons

4 used for $25, splice the CBR600 wires to the VTR wires, and get rid of 5 pounds of junk weight


Stick coil hole weatherproofing

Just a couple miles. The other also fastest red 98 only has 55k

What I've forgotten about VTRs, most have yet to learn...

The cockpit of my Gentleman's Express...

At least I can see around my girth with the ancient extenders and R1 mirrors upside down

 

Superb. I'll give this a shot this weekend 😁
Thanks so much 🙏
