Now to the symptoms...
Bike was running fine before i took the front end apart to do a stem bearing replacement. when i put it back together it started up but died on me a few blocks away from home. Next day it also started up but died after a few minutes. Each time it dies there is no spark after even with a fresh battery. today i went out there and after my testing of components tested the plugs again and lo-behold bright blue arcs. Started it with some starter fluid and kept it running for a few minutes. put the tank back on and all the sudden no spark... and the weirdest part is the battery drained to 25% which i've never seen unless its defective.
So why is there no spark and it's draining a brand new battery??? i have 2 batteries both in good condition according to multimeter and my charger.
Update:
I'm thinking it might be my charging system since it will run with a fresh battery for a few minutes until the battery reaches 75%. I checked my stator wires and one of the connections burnt the plasic around it and the previously silver connection was bronzed. However when i tested all 3 wires the readings were fine 1.2 ohms each and infinint resistance against the case.
