  1. supplementary to other replies and just to close my loop, mate Simon says "bad earth and or coil on the way out, so all contacts to be cleaned made good but if still an issue coil is US"

  6. They are, as far as I remember, OEM ones...........they are the ones with the screw spike in the tower, rather than the push in type.

    I have never fitted or tried them out 'on the road', although I think I did use a pair as a temporary substitute when checking the ones on my bike some years ago.

    I will dig them out later today and test them, then report back.

    Reporting back..........Tested Primary and Secondary circuits of both pairs..........One pair's readings are very slightly lower than the other, but all are within the resistance range that Haynes specify.
