What state was the bike in before this problem? did it run? has it been standing for years etc etc etc

[porndoguk]

does the subfame and engine mounts have continuity to earth at the battery?

are the little female spade crimps on the coils properly?

Hi,
That battery voltage sounds a little low, it should be 13.5v ish
can you measure the voltage on the battery when you try to start it?
have you checked the resistance in the coils?
I hate electrical faults
Is the bike a 30 or 35?

Kill switch?

Doh, yer start at the beginning
