I checked the pick-up coil gap last year, it was OK.
Besides checking my sidestand and kill switch assemblies, is there a checklist or "how to" to trouble-shoot the CDI or pickup?
I did put on a new kickstand spring last year, it was weaking and causing the bike to cut off. This was a very different shut-down than experienced by just the kickstand lowering. Prior to shutting off, it stuttered a lot, than back-fired before shutting down completely. (this all in a span of a few seconds)
I was definitely nervous the rest of the way. Most of the route was on winding, single-lane, guardrail only, no shoulder Rt 30. Cutting off with traffic behind me and no shoulder would have been interesting.
