Check continuity between the stator plate, cylinder head and coil mounting bolt. If you don't have ground continuity between all 3 you'll have no spark. Given that youve tried swapping in all the replacement parts, my theory is that the only ground between the engine and the frame was through the cylinder head mount to the frame. When they pulled the mount doing the top end, they broke the last ground between the engine and the frame and thus the coil.

I would most likely look into the wiring. For the year that it is it could have a broke wire from the inside and it can’t be seen. You may have to get a better multimeter and test the wiring and see if you have a open contact somewhere in the harness

Check continuity across the spark plug wire and every other wire involved with ignition system. Could be a wire broken internally, which would explain the bike suddenly not running after the rebuild. I've seen this in my field of work. It's a lot harder to diagnose when the wires are buried in the ground lol

It’s a ground loop issue.just replace all of the electrical system with good quality stuff. If you have one that runs,use all of it and kill switch. Then when it has spark, change one part at a time to find what is bad. This way it doesn’t cost you alot of money just time. Good luck brother

If you've tried known working (and compatible) components it's probably in the wiring. Obviously ground is a good place to look but I think that's unlikely since you've swapped components so much. Make sure the connectors aren't stretched open too far. This could result in testing fine but not actually making contact. And verify spark plug boot isn't out of resistance value spec. I assumed one was good and pulled my hair out. Coincidentally my meter was giving bad readings and I had done the same thing basically. Swapped out literally every part except the spark plug boot. Parts store happened to be out or I would have replaced that when I replaced coil. Which was my first guess

Sometimes I run an extra ground from the coil ground to the head, I do that a lot on banshee on high hp stuff, The 87+ ignition is much better, and doing the dual source coil mod is an excellent upgrade. That first stator looks like a cr125, or pre 92 cr250 they are a bolt on, the cr250 ignitions from 92+ need a backing plate mod to fit
