Power to coils but no spark
 
1999 SV650 won't start.

Neither cylinder has a spark but 12.5V is going to both coils.

Electrics work, engine turns over etc.



The last two times I started the bike before the time wouldn't start, it was hard to start, but once going seemed absolutely fine.


I have changed the plugs, still no spark.

I have remove one of the spark plug caps to check for a spark directly from the HT, still no spark.


The is around 12.5V going to the coils with the ignition on, when i crank the engine this drops to around 9.5V, is this correct?


I have checked the pulse generator coil as per the manual, the resistance of it was within the acceptable range and there was no continuity between it and ground.

I have a multimeter and a manual, what should I try next?

Thanks

9.5 a little low, try pop it on charge for a bit, eliminate that easy one first.
