Howdy all....me again with the same issue on my T5. It is now driving me mental. Scenario:Took scoot to work on Friday, back fired a few times then died and wouldn't restart. Getting zero spark but on kick I can see my lights flicker to life. I recently was on here with very similar issues and replaced stator and CDI...which got it running again. So the question is does anyone have any suggestions? Can anything bust the stator as this is the second stator on the scoot in 6 months with the scoot having very little ride time. It is kitted with a Polini 152 top end. Have stuck a multimeter to the CDI/Stator wires and between the White/Green I'm reading around 586ohms. Apparently the reading should be around 500, but is the 586 too high? Anything else I can test check easily? Done usual, swapped plug, HT lead and even tried another CDI I had lying about (although that could be a lemon tbh). any help and advice appreciated once again...

Just checked the CDI, by sticking it on another scooter, worked fine, so guess not that....surely it cannot be another stator issue. If so, something must be wrecking them???
Stuck!

Could your flywheel be loosing magnetism? Seems like its the only thing in the equation you havent changed.
Are there any wear marks on either of your stators, where the flywheel may have been rubbing?
Have you tried disconnecting the end green wire on the cdi, just to rule out a stray wire earthing out somewhere.
How did you set the timing?

Thanks guys. I have posted on another thread as seems like there was some rubbing on the stator and looks like movement from the crank, seems to have some play. Engine out and going to split. The movement maybe explains the noise I've been getting too....scoot has sounded like a bag of spanners at times.
