    GS450 Coil Test. Am I doing this correctly?

    I watched some YouTube videos on this but just wanted to run it by you guys to be sure. Just got the bike back together and it turns over, but doesn't start. I figured the best thing to do was start with the ignition.

    3.9ohms for the primary is fine.
    11kOhms for the secondary is fine, across the naked secondary wires. 20 Kilo Ohms is right for both spark plug boots being in place - they each contain a 5KOhm resistor.

    79 XS650SE - Pragmatic Ratter - goes better than a manky old twin should.
