Im having an issue with my 1998 vmax 600 xtc twin. I went for a ride today and was cruising around 6000 rpm down a narrow trail giving it frequent throttle blips when my sled suddenly died like if I were to hit the kill switch. I couldn’t get it started back up after and that was after 30 minutes of riding. Took the belt off and Brought the sled back to my yard, a few hours later I switched plugs and it started 3rd pull and ran abit roigh for a minute and then ran fine, I shut it off and put belt back on, went to start it an hour later and could not get it going. I boosted my battery and cranked for awhile until it started, let it warm up and drove it around the block, as soon as I pulled in the yard and let go of throttle it immediately died and would not start back up. Checked spark and its there and blue, waited a few hours and started it first pull full choke, it ran for about 15 seconds and died again instantly like if id hit the killswitch and then wouldnt start.
What could be causing these issues? I check white/red and white/green coming out the stator and got 207 ohm, check brown and black/red and got 250 ohm (this was all cold at -10°c). Seems like its getting decent spark and these issues just appeared after running fine for all season.
Im not sure what this could be im thinking possibly cdi if theres a way to verify that or check other things, thank you for the help in advance!
