No spark figured out

Well I took apart the entire $400 bike to paint the frame and
swingarm. With that complete an dry it came time give the motor a once
over before install in the refurbished bike. It was left sitting due
to no spark so I started by testing everything and it came out with a
bad stator. Just removed the flywheel to inspect and low and behold
the red pickup wire was just hanging there! Look like it was run
incorrectly resulting in the wire being damaged and then coming
dislodge from the pickup. This will be and easy fix to save the ducati
stator but for now I will just replace it with our spare ducati stator
to get it up and running.
