Here's my question..
An SR500 will run without a battery.
If I chopped the battery terminal wires off and taped them off, will the bike still run??
I've checked everything, stator readings are good, coil readings are good, tried a half-dozen spark plugs, tried a different CDI box, and still no spark.
Then I get to thinking - what if the wires to the battery aren't complete? Would that keep me from getting spark?? I'd just go out and connect them if I weren't at work for the next three days, so anybody with some experience would be great..
To summerize - if the battery terminals aren't connected, will the bike spark? What would happen if the battery terminals weren't connected?
