fatbastard Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) My son has a Evo 2011 about 6 month old cut out twice yesterday , 1st time got it going again 2nd time no joy. At one point no spark. Cleaned carb , stator , New plug but only getting a weak spark and won't fire up. Any idea's surely can't be a Stator on a 6 month old bike.

jfc Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Have you removed the kill switch. If it is the original kill switch you should get a new one (yam type). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbastard Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Would that not give no spark rather than a weak spark ? I had thought of that yesterday but never got around to by passing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfc Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 It can give a week spark if it has a high resistance fault to earth when it is not depressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ormplus Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 kill switches give trouble on the evos. better with an after market yam type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbastard Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 kill switches give trouble on the evos. better with an after market yam type. To rule it out is it just a matter of unplugging it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfc Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Yes, If you unplug it it should run, if not the kill switch is probably ok,you need to check for cables shorting possibly on frame ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbastard Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Phoned Beta UK today after unplugging kill switch didn't work, they said it sounded like the stator, a free one is in the post along with an aftermarket kill switch. They said to try the Stator but if it isn't that give them a phone back. Quite amazed at how helpful they are and it was them who mentioned Stator and replacing under warranty .
