I’m not too enclined on wiring on these things but I have no spark and the starter switch isn’t working and when I test o/w on the ecu and a few others I’m only getting 3 volts. Which I can’t make much sense of it. I know for sure the battery is good the gauges turn on when I turn on the key. Another thing is the fuel pump doesn’t prime or work, I get voltage to the wires when not hooked up but as soon as I hook it up the volts go down. I know for sure the fuel pump works because I hooked it up to the battery and it ran. I had the bike in running shape and then all of a sudden this stuff started happening, it gets extremely confusing. If someone could tell me if it’s an ecu problem or the rectifier or stator that would be great.

Capacitor in your ignition,,if its a replacement ignition they amazon or anyone but a oem parts dealer does not put in the Capacitor necessary to make your bike run, order a oem keyed ignition problem solved
