July 15, 20224 yr Hello. my beta 270 rev 3 2005 wont start. new ignition coil and start plug. new piston and cylinder. I have spark on the plug. It wont start, why? Can someone help me 🙏 can it be the stator?
July 15, 20224 yr If Mikuni, might have flooded. Check Spark Plug, If wet might have flooded. Edit: This happened often to me before i learnt what to do Edited July 15, 20224 yr by carl ekblom
July 16, 20224 yr check the woodruff key,trials bikes are a bit prone to shearing them..you get a spark but its out of phase.
July 16, 20224 yr Author Thanks trailman, I Will check the woodruff. But the bike have compression and had even tried startspray. It wont start. but i Will check that out!
July 17, 20224 yr Trialman is most likely correct. It's common for bikes to shear the woodruff key if the engine has a sudden stop. Especially if the flywheel nut isn't properly tightened as the flywheel is an interference fit to the crankshaft. The woodruff key is just for alignment. It is possible to have a bad stator as well and still have spark. What usually goes out of these older stators is the trigger coil that tells the CDI where to fire. If the trigger signal is weak the CDI could be firing in the wrong location so you have spark but in the wrong part of the cycle.

If i can use a multimeter. And where I can buy a stator. thanks!
July 17, 20224 yr You need to check all grounds. Did you paint anything? It is possible to have a spark and no spark with the plug in the head.
July 19, 20224 yr If it comes down to the stator, the ref 3 was noted for stator failing, then West country windings do an exchange for reconditioned one. How strong is your spark, is petrol definitely get to the carb, i.e no blockage in tank? Strong blue spark could be timing out due to Woodford key/flywheel loose
July 27, 20224 yr The plug can test good with a fat spark but break down internally under further load and thermal variance. Just has a brand new NGK do this after three hours. Finally ran after many kicks but spluttered to a stop after a minute. Sounded as if the timing was badly retarded when it did run briefly & I was convinced that was the problem after I eliminated the usual carb issues on a brand new bike. Another new plug fixed it at the dealer! Edited July 27, 20224 yr by ascended_master
