Well, you've already gone through most of the ignition!

Not sure what you did when you bypassed the ignition.

Verify the Black wire/white stripe to the CDI is *open* when ignition is ON and the engine kill switch in the run (ON) position.
--
Run the resistance checks on the stator.

From the service manual here's the wires and resistance values:
Exciter coil - Black wire/red strip to ground 750 to 1200 ohms.
Pulse generator - Blue wire/yellow stripe to ground 50 to 200 ohms.

all i did was hotwire the scooter to see if it was the ignition switch or not, im trying to narrow it down to stator or alternator which i realy dont want to pull but i will if i have to. just looking for anything else that may cause it not to get spark.
