After not starting I found that there isn't any spark. I have checked over the bike and the only thing I could find was continuity between the yellow and black and earth kill switch wires when using estart or kicker. Is this a CDI issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you try to disconnect the kill switch?
I don't know about the 18 models, but on earlier bikes the kill switch grounds the ignition signal. If it is faulty, perhaps it grounds it all the time, not only when pushed in.
