Doesnt have a run stop switch
Yes, it does! You just showed it to the world on your video! Har, har!

You have an EXCELLENT video! Well done! I was impressed by the built-in voltmeter on the battery! That's neat! Also impressed by the logical steps through to find and then prove the cause. Good use of your multimeter. This was so good sorta makes me wonder the original intent of your post! Some of us need to ask YOU for help!

By the way that aint my video i still dont have spark and dont have anythin to ride because my 2 stroke gilera dna has issues with electrics. The video is one i followed to check my scooter and everything seemed ok but still no spark. So yeah NOT MY VIDEO.

Ouch! OK, sorry. Do what he said. The only thing he said that had nothing to do with no spark is the routine he went through with the solenoid. We knew it worked because he cranked the engine several times!

If voltage reading from stator to CDI is normal . . disconnect key switch pin from CDI to determine if that circuit has a ground fault issue.  If engine does start, disconnect pulsar/trigger/pickup bullet connector to stop.

Jarik seems to have checked all components for continuity/resistance and found none to be the problem.  So, your suggestion of testing for voltage, beginning at the stator seems logical next step to determine where the ignitdion voltage stops.  I guess at that point you'd look for a bad connection of some sort?
