I've ridden about 300 miles this year. The last two attempts of riding has resulted in the bike limping home while firing on one cylinder. As you would expect, the bike ran great on the 16 mile trip to the shop. After three weeks, the mechanic can't get it to act up again. He said that he was going to ride it this weekend for 100 miles. Sure wish Triumph had a diagnostic tool to check the electrical bits. 
Didn't buy into the hype, you can keep the change.

Not riding them enough is worse than riding the hell put of them.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Yep that's what I think. Ignition coil. The shop I took my TBA to did not know what was wrong either until I told him to check the coil. And the guy was a former race bike mechanic and very good.

CDI or coil... one or the other in all probability,

If it weren't for all those pesky monthly priorities, both would be replaced. The preferred method is to narrow it down to either the c.d.i. or coil. Where's that money tree people keep talking about?
