07 CRF 250 X Recently installed a Athena 280 big bore kit and a Hot Cams Stage 1 cam, a new Trail Tech Stator with Reg/Rec and a new cut off switch that allows me to also turn off the headlight. Also installed a Recluse clutch. The Trail Tech stator kit was brand new everything else was used.
I went for the first ride last Sunday and all was great. Better than great
I went for a good long ride today starting at California Rd / Triple Tower / Just Dandy / The Eliminator / M&M / Forbidden Planet.
Along Forbidden Planet my bike started to miss fire intermittently. Ran back to 511 down the road to Triple Tower and back to my truck. On the way back it seemed to clear up then started again.
When I got back I checked all the connections to the new stator and even drained the oil to pull the cover to have a visual. I am presuming it is the stator, or ignition system side.
I did pull the spark plug and it looked good but tried a new one as well. No change.
It feels like an electrical issue. It is more pronounced when the engine is loaded.
I did install a new kill switch as well so that is another option to check but it does not feel like that would be the issue. It can quit at idle sometimes and then starts right away.
Any help in how to diagnose this would be appreciated. I like to do my own wrenching to learn about the bike.
If it is not simple I may need to take it to Woody, but am scared it will come back painted Orange!!
