Gday people,

I have a drama with my 88 heritage, While riding along the bike just dies, it doesnt matter how hot or cold it is. As soon as i turn the ignition off then back on again it starts running again and i can do this while riding it. it started  the other week so i had to keep turning it off and on just to get her home. Now while sitting in the shed it runs for about a minute then dies. To me it seems to be an electrical fault maybe a coil but im not sure, I replaced the ignition switch but no difference.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 check battery terminals etc , listen for  main  or ign circuit breaker cut in & out if so it's a short somewhere . but could be ign system if it's more than 5 years old  it could be stuffed  what type of ign system does she have if its stock original old 1988 it would be buggered 

terminals are all good, i cant hear anything shorting out, it just dies until i turn ignition off and on again, its weird. It just seems like it looses all spark which makes me think it could be a coil but i dont want to start replacing stuff without asking for input first... knowing my luck i will end up replacing half the bike then find out it was something easy.

 put  your finger on the circuit breaker you will feel & HEAR IT CLICK IN & OUT IT'S NORMAL TAKE A COUPLE  OF SEC'S TOO CLICK BACK IN AGAIN  +  PUT A  TEST LAMP ON THE COIL INPUT WIRE ?
