From personal experience, I can second the issue with the side stand switch, which is on the left hand side, half-way up, and seems to have a habit of coming loose. Also, the clutch switch at the lever is prone to acting up when rain gets in there, so the CDI thinks the clutch is out (only an issue if the bike is in gear). Also, if the bike was nicked, and the ignition was cut / played with / shorted, there's a good chance you have a dead CDI, hence no spark. A company called Ignitech in the Czech republic sell a plug-in replacement for the original CDI (it was marketed for the 600, if i remember correctly), which worked well, but I ended up finding a second hand OEM one, and putting it back in, to keep that side of things as stock as possible.
