@DTR-NSR thanks! checking for a spark will be next on the cards! If theres no spark does anyone know the most likely causes? Or is that a stupid question? Guess theres plenty of reasons for not getting a spark?
@jamesdowning Here's how to check if the plug sparking or not? Take it out, connect it to the HT lead and place the tip against a metal surface. Crank the bike with the kick starter and look for a spark, it will be very visible for a split second. If there's a spark then the plug is getting voltage, if there's nothing then you have an electrical problem.
