Timing problems on the 450 Bomber
mo goldie:
Well Bryan
I just fitted one of the Digital ones so wanted to check that it is doing its job right as that is one of the conditions of the warrantee for the E/I .
so first put a meter across the batt see what's going in .... as My battery went a bit flat after using the E/starter for all them times ...so on charge Now.
also still got to sort out a rear light lens as the one I got all cracked too.
Bryanj:
You must remember the 450 charging system is one of Hondas most agricultural ones where extra charging coils are switched in when lights turned on, if the electronic ignition needs a steady precise voltage it should not be on that bike
mo goldie:
Well that's the one they recommend if you don't use it you wont have a warrantee.

You will need to connect your multimeter in series between the battery and the live lead on the 20amp fused connection on your Fluke. Run the engine, but don't use the electric start as it will blow the multimeter fuse, then take a reading and ensure it's over 12 volts. You can't just test these on voltage across battery live and neutral as an AGM battery has more static voltage than the alternator can produce so it doesn't tell you anything. Try it lights on and lights off. If that doesn't make sense to you have a look at the end of my Bomber build thread for a better explanation.

What was the wiring mistake that caused the lack of spark.
