    So I spent a good chunk of last night looking through the manual for all relevant stuff and here is what I did and the results of the tests.... So in thinking the pulse generator unless anyone has any other ideas... Side note, anyone know the size of the exhaust header studs.... Lol

    Update, after putting the spare pulse generator in and it reading the same Resistance and not fixing the problem. I put in the spare spark box that I bought at the same time as the pulse generator since I figured it'd be a good idea to have one on hand since you can't really test for them. The spark box had gone bad. Bike runs perfectly now. Still need to clean the carbs though.

    might have been smarter to have plugged in the other cdi box for a first test

    Good to hear that you have it sorted out.

    I agree. But it came in two days after the pulse generator and I was simply inpatient. Bike has 60k on it so I took the opportunity to check the clutch plates and some other stuff while I had it open
