Hi everyone,

Need some help with this one!...i've got no spark,turning on the ignition the kips motor goes through its usual thing,i've just found out when i work the front brake lever with the ignition still on the motor goes through the cycle again?,this is the same for lights and idicators,i've checked the earths but still the same thing,could it be the cdi?.....any clues? cheers Jeff

ide say take out the clutch n sidestand dafety switches first ,or cleen em

Cheers for that Fred,i've done that,the kips motor cycles itself when the lights or indicators are switched on as well.....

Is it dropping the battery voltage enough, so it thinks the ignition's been switched off? Quite a bit of load taken by the lights etc?

Have some wires shorted against each other in the loom

Thanks for that,the batterys charged,the reason why i'm asking about the cdi is going by the wiring diagram all wires from the kips motor go to\from the cdi.....

have you got another KIPS motor to try ? sometimes something gets stuck in the whole mecanism.

if not, take the whole assembly appart and make sure everythings moves smoothly.

Come on Jeff,there was another KR1S at the bike meet weds already taking your place

Its not that easy....could be this could be that i'll get there,who's was the kr?must be someone off here......

Hi all fixed it!....it was a drop in voltage that caused the kips motor to keep cycling,some of the windings in the stator was duff so had it rewound,it must have been the windings that work the ignition circuit?....thanks for all the help....Jeff

Nice one Jeff and i guess keith too
