Hi gents just some advise please,bike is swinging hard after I replaced starter relay but it seems there's no spark.Ist the coils or is the rectifier?The problem was that bike didn't want to start by hand than I replaced starter relay.I thought it as the kill switch but when I stripped bike I saw that kill switch kills coils.How do I check the coils with a multimeter and what should resirltance be?Advise will be much appreciated.

So it would not crank before you replaced the starter relay and now it cranks but does not start? Have you checked the ignition power fuse?

I haven't but if the ignition power fuse was blown would it not be totally dead.

If you believe the haynes manual, the start circuit is run off the headlight fuse and thus does not rely on the ignition fuse.

There should be 12 volts on at least one terminal of the ignition coil if the power circuit is operating correctly. You refer to the bike being stripped bare, what does this mean.

It means I stripped all off fairings everything off as I'm preparing it for the track.Ok so I'd my volts is there than its definitely the coil packs.

What electrical units have you removed/replaced while stripping the bike.

just to avoid going around in circles the bike was working fine at some point until you removed things from it?
or was it "broken" before you started messing?
No spark like magg said could either be lack of power to igntiion box, faulty ignition box, problems with the ignition coil pickups or somethign wrong with the kill switch or the coils.
there isnt a great deal to the ignition system on the nc30 shoulnd't be hard to track down.
