Hi Guys,

quick update and question:I replaced the female coil connectors on the wiring loom. Top and bottom both showed evidence of arcing, which is no surprise given the state of some of the coils I've replaced. I ran the bike about 20 miles around the 'hood with no signs of a miss, which proves......nothing, given how intermittent this problem has been.

Here's my immediate question: when the bike goes on one cylinder, and is doing that dreaded puh-puh sound with the occasional backfire thrown in for drama, and I'm, say, 15 miles from home, will it harm the engine to limp the bike home in that condition? Last time I called a tow truck, but that is getting expensive and the wife totalled my pick-up truck, so I need to plan ahead.

I'm thinking maybe I'll just set up a circuit around the house so that I am always within pushing distance. Smile Thanks.
