Any 885cc triple, or the 270 degree twins will work.

Coils

Hi,

How did you know it was 'coils' and what did you do to identify which coil went bad.

Regards

when i got back from the run, i felt to see which pipe was cool to see which
cylinder wasn't firing, put a new plug on the ht cap to check it wasn't the plug.
I then swapped the coils over to see if the dead cylinder followed the coil, which it did
Hope this is of help to you
Neil
