The only other one is the kill switch on the handlebar (new, by the way). I also checked voltage coming in to the CDI from the stator and it reads a measly 12 volts!

How did I go from running good to not sparking on the next run? I'm going to do a detailed check of the stator as per dirtbkr188's suggestion sometime tomorrow.
There should be a safety switch at the rear brake also. It's tied into the brake light. I had trouble starting my smaller 125cc Taotao and found that it was a pinched wire at the rear brake light switch.
