Dropped the big ***** off at the dealer

[Evil Mitch]

Well i disconnected the gipro just to eliminate it from the list of posibilitys i resoldered all the wires from my bars ect and the problem is still there.
I am convinced it is a lead the problem is always there but sometimes bad mild and other times extreme. I remember a few years back when a car i owned had a bad lead and it acted almost identicle to this.

The dealer replaced my plugs but he only looked at the leads and said they looked ok but he never tested them.

Im thinking ill pull leads directly of the coils tomorrow while its running "being carefull not to be shocked lol" and see if there is one that makes no difference if so ive found my culprite.
If its not the leads then i dont know what . the bike better hope it is or it will be going to a new home

I have had the Triumph loom replacement for the shut down problem.

I've had the replacement ignition switch for the shut down problem.

Guess what happened today, 120kph in a sweeping corner and fu#k me the ***** shuts down.

Guess who's not a happy boy!!!!!!

on a better note i just went out to the shed fired her up and pulled a lead from the coil she started running funny so i plugged her back in pulled another lead same thing happened so i plugged her back in pulled the one that i told the mechanic looked sus that he said was fine and no change in idle so ok that leads ****ed then pulled the second one on the next coil no change in idol that leads ****ed too both look like they wher glued or something at some point.

now i just gotta find out if those hotwires will fit the standard coils dont see why not and ask the minister of war and finance for some money

Now I have stopped laughing, and mate I needed a good laugh!!!

I've heard and shared many a term for our beloved wives and girlfriends. I'm sorry mate but the minister of war and finance is the best yet, and I have to admit I'm using that one from now on. Classic, what a fu#king classic, committed to memory for future use.

Mitch Not trying to run salt in your wounds but did I not say I thought it might be a plug or lead I am just sorry I don't live closer or I would have insisted checking the leads with ohm meter from memory they should not exceed 20 milli ohms per foot of lenght
What want to know is what they did in the service to justifie $770
I am now determined more than ever to upgrade my coils and leads after I do a little more research but those ones I gave you the link to look bloody good

 

[Evil Mitch]

Yeah but I dont have the money to do coils as well and they won't go onto stock coils . I knew it was a lead I told them one looked odd and they argued otherwise so I started looking elsewhere not to worry I had to fix that wiring anyway from the bars

True but I would be taking the leads after you replace them to the dealer with a multi meter and ask them if they know how to use a multi meter and then proceed to show them how to check the resistance in the leads make sure you mark the faulty ones so you can compare them to the ones which are still OK And ask them if they did not learn about the correct checking of leads, I bet they are young mechanics

Mitch, I think it's time for you to go to bed , hope she is all fixed.

I can tell u one thing they wont be working on my bike or future bikes
The mechanic didnt even know it was normal for a little tiny bit of oil to come out when removing the crank angle sensor lol they are amatures mate if the computer doesnt throw a code they are lost.
all Minor servicing will be done by myself from now on and if i need valves adjusted ect ill take it somewhere else
