Hi everybody! Just got my first bike...

[jberd45]

And I'm trying to sort out why it won't start.

I just got an '80 Honda CM400A the other day. I've got no spark. I think it's the coil, but I'm open to any advice I can get!

Welcome to the forum, sorry not my field of expertise.

God help me but I love those little 400's.
Get a manual.

I think people tend to go the coil route too soon.
Usually the first thing is an old / bad battery.
Then plug wires that DO wear out (who knows why?).

Why not try posting this in the repair or Honda sections for more/better replys.
