Start with the obvious first, check the killswitch!
If it ran fine before you stopped, you may have hit it by mistake.
You wouldn't be the first to overlook this, even experienced riders do.

So is it up and running now?

If not, is the ignition switch working correctly, with the idiot lights showing?
Main fuse still intact?
How did you check the coil output?

Not running yet, ignition switch working as it should. Tested the live to the coil with ignition on and when kicked over. Also tested coil feed at cdi and nothing there either.

Been having problems with my RD125lc not starting. I have got power to the coil when kicked over but no spark.
I have tried a brand new coil, different cdi, different stator coil and flywheel, dissconnected ignition switch and cutt-off switch and tested all wires between stator and cdi but still no spark????
I'm going to try thrashing it with a hammer next!!!!!

Squirt some fuel in the air fiter and then try to start it. Try to narow it down to electrics or fuel. All it needs to run is compression, fuel and a spark.

Check low tension wiring - was an issue 20 years ago on LCs so gotta be worth a look?

If i take the wire off the coil and test it, it has power when the bike is kicked over. When connected back to the coil and then tested there is no power running through it!!!!!!!!!!
