bingo Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 hello, i have a 04 300 raga rep, just started it before a trial, rode about 200 yards and the thing just died. i have checked the fuel flow, and the spark with 2 plugs, there is no spark, the earths are ok and i have removed the kill switch to eliminate that. it has a ducati ignition which explains a lot!!!!! anyone had a similar problem? can anyone help? bingo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalley250 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 My flywheel came loose and this caused an electrical failure. Also make sure the spark plug is screwed well onto HT lead as ive known failures due to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterb Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Hi Bingo, If the flywheel has not turned on the crank shaft and sheared the flywheel key, the problem may be the HT coil which includes the ignition electronics. The separate finned aluminium box under the tank is a 12 volt rectifier/regulator and is not used for ignition purposes. (Ducati system only) Bye, PeterB.
