Re: Coil failure again?

Given the fairly bizarre failure
nature, my bet would be on the black box itself.


this was checked by the outfit that sorrted it last. Both with a freezer
spray and a change of black box - in fact I suspect he didn't bother to
switch the black boxes back round after changing them - cos there's a
white label on this that I don't recall seeing before.

the only cdi's on ebay are used ones in Merkia for 150 bucks plus shipping
- I hate to think what a new one would cost.

I probably should also mention that after he (allegedly?) traced the issue
to the coil - the bike did run absolutely fine, for considerable
distances. Then the weather turned a bit shit [tm] and I had use of a car,
so I did. all that happened in between was the immobiliser eating the
battery, requiring a jolly good optimating (over night was sufficient).
And now the problem appears to have recurred.


Get the immobiliser removed.

Really.

This one really strikes a chord with me; as in all art-making machinery, media, and apprehension, there is a plethora of convergences, and this work calls up some of the most poignant; an alternate technique could draw good focus from front to back, perhaps, but this configuration also invokes other characteristics of art appreciation, more fulfilling than a technical _coup_. ...
