Xciting 500 / Power to coil but no spark. What can it be?
« on: June 11, 2016, 12:07:00 PM »
Hi guys
I have a 2006 Xciting 500 carburator. I have been driving my scooter nearly every day. Since two weeks ago its been standing. When i drove it a week ago i discovered it cranks longer than usual. I tried starting it again after a week of standing, the bike started first time. I then switched it off after a few seconds and ever since it only cranks. I removed the spark plug and discovered its not sparking from the coil. This i did by removing the cord and placing the coil witout spark plug against the engine. I have checked to see if power comes to the coil with the multimeter and its strong at 12volts.
Can i assume the coil is faulty or is their additional checks for me to do before buying a new coil as im afraid of buying something which is not the cause of the problem.

Xciting 500 / New owner would like to service
« on: October 29, 2015, 09:10:49 PM »
Just bought the scooter. 2007 model, sitting on 11200km's/7000miles and would like to service it. The oil was overfilled and drained it when i discovered, due to this the air filter element is a bit oily.
What exactly do i need to change on the scooter and where do i purchase the parts online? I am in south africa.
