I put a brand new switch on it. im thinking I may need to test my CDI box?? if gotten it off can anyone explain to me how to test it?

Ok replaced ignition switch still no luck 🤯🤯 it will crank and idle for short periods of time but acts like it’s not firing on all 4 ive checked each plug by holding it against the engine and they all apear to be firing🤷🏼‍♂️

That’s my plan now Probly shoulda done that first 🤦🏼‍♂️ But it just seemed like more of a fuel issue I never thought the ignition switch would cause issues like this. but I guess we will see I’ll be replacing the ignition switch this week crossing my fingers that works.

Has anyone experienced a bad ignition switch causing the bike to misfire or spit and sputter or even cut dead when accelerating? ive replaced fuel pump and filter and had carbs overhauled and synced and replaced plugs with New ones. I know my ignition switch is bad for sure! when I crank it up it struggles to start but once it warms up it will idle pretty good but if I give it throttle it will either die or spit and sputter wasn’t sure if the ignition switch could cause these issues?

Hey guys I’m Josh Williamson from Tuscaloosa Alabama. Riding an 08 RSV it’s down atm but thanks to some of the amaizing people and information I’ve found on this forum hopefully I’ll be able to get it back up and running end of next week sometime.
