Is my understanding correct that you did this test with the bike stationary, and not under riding load? I was trying to determine if you were having a fuel delivery issue. The bike will consume greater quantities of fuel when riding as opposed to stationary, so it may not develop with that test. However since the issue didn't develop, then I would assume the coils are functioning properly. Provided that you allowed the engine to completely warm up, as weak coils show their signs when hot.

I did not do the full throttle test, I didn't have time to take it out on the road. Thoughts. On Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 1:15 PM, Allen Thomas <althomas...@gmail.com> wrote: > ** > What year?
