Coils can check out ok and still be junk. The tool that measures them under load is what you need. But then again you could buy a dozen+ coils for the price of that tool.


Well, haven't had a hiccup for over 100 miles, keeping my fingers crossed. I guess they have to fail at some point.

Another odd thing happened that may be related. I have a micro-garage opener mounted near my key switch (momentary switch goes to the Genie remote). I have noticed that this summer, with the bike just started, when I hit the opener to close the garage door, it kills the bike. I thought it was my imagination, but it slowly became 100% consistent over the summer. A few weeks ago, it would kill the bike as I was riding up to open it after a ride (bike completely warmed up). After completing the testing today, that symptom has disappeared.
Of course the remote was in no way connected to anything on the bike, but somehow it was causing interference in the ignition system. Am I crazy?
