I got 1999 Honda 400ex that was not running when I bought it. Well so I messed with it got it to crank up for a second. The frame was in rough shape so I decided to swap it to extra frame I had laying around. After I swapped I do not have any spark coming to the spark plug. I’ve checked all the wiring and I cannot find anything if any of y’all know of anything please help me out thanks

Are the grounding areas clean? If they have surface rust or paint/powdercoat on them they need to be clean metal. There is a multitude of things that can cause no spark. If its not a ground issue you will need a multi meter and a digital voltage adapter. Both can be purchased online for around 25 dollars a piece. From there get out the fsm and start checking all the things it says to check. Coil, spark plug cap, cdi, stator all come to mind first. You may want to try un screwing the spark plug cap and trimming off a 1/4 inch of the coil wire and screwing it back on before ordering anything though. Could be that simple. Welcome to the forums!
