I have a 79 sportster. It was running good, I cranked it this weekend to ride. It warmed up for a minute then cutoff. It is getting fuel and turns over fine but no spark.
Thanks for your time,
Ricky
Answer -
Do you have points or electronic ignition?

AnswerFirst thing you need ot do is check to see if you have 12 volts to the coil with a volt meter. If you do, then test he coil with a OHM meter. If it tests good then check the wiring to the electronic ignition. If all that is good then the ignition has gone bad.
Good luck and happy riding
