Ive bought this Honda Tl 125 k2 1974 in bits, the engines all assembled I can only run the bike with a 6v battery connected to the positive side of the ht coil , when i try and connect the wire from the generator into the circuit there is no ht spark, with the engine running from a 6v supply battery i measure the output voltage from the generator which I believe should be ac it only reads 2 volts, as i thought there was a fault with the coil windings I bought a new set , when i came to refit the new ones i still only get 2 volts reading.

Any suggestions?

Cheers Ash

Could it be the primary coil?

Is the primary coil in the flywheel? if so we have renewed it.

Many thanks

are you sure its a tl 125 engine fitted to bike? as the early cb125 engine needed a battery to run should be able to tell by engine number just above gear change shaft.if it is a tl have you got a condencer fitted on coil?
