Well, as my life has been going this summer, more bad timing happened this weekend. Bike started running like crap on Friday night, front cylinder intermittently firing, cutting in and out.

So far I took the tank off, scoured and cleaned it out, replaced petcock assembly, replaced plugs and wires, all of this because at first I thought it was a fuel issue.

The next day after I reassembled I realized it was actually a cylinder cutting in and out, could be coil or ignition module I guess, or a short somewhere. Battery is holding a charge fine, all cables are tight, I am really hoping it is just the coil since the TwinTec ignition is pricey and already tuned for the motor and cams.

I don't have the time to troubleshoot anymore this week so I dropped it at my buddy's garage, he built the motor.

The timing is just peachy since I'm supposed to head out on a 2 week bike tour of New England on Saturday. I guess on the positive, it didn't crap out on me while out on the road.
