Yesterday (Sunday) I rode about 200km then bike started to lose power and run on 2 cylinders then suddenly burst into life again. This happened intermittently until I stopped for lunch. The trip home 200km was a pleasure - full throttle lots of downshifting 70km/h uphill and if lucky 110km/h downhill.
Today have removed plugs found the culprits - No 2 and 3 are getting no spark
When I test 2 and 3 plugs on No 1 they get spark
I have trimmed the leads from the coil so wonder if from the coil is stuffed.
Also the spark on other plugs is pretty weak - hard to see
I'm running Dyna S ignition
Can someone explain to me in really basic laymans terms how to test the lead and coil?
Or is it time to replace the coil? The bike has done 48,000km but has gone years sitting in other peoples sheds. I've been riding it for the last 3 years after giving it a tidy up.
Thanks in anticipation
I want to get a few more rides in before the rains come.
It's 31 celcius here today and I'm on holidays and can't ride
