Ignition coil question
In the manual it shows the the left ignition coil should be feeding spark plugs 2+3 and the right 1+4 is this important that they are this way as i've just noticed mine are not this way round.

Re: Ignition coil question
If the bike is running then NO
but
Normally YES

It's all down to the valve timing / ignition timing. If it had been set 360' out then swapping the electrical leads between the coils cures the problem or swapping the coils - I'd go leads personally as a lot quicker to do
Do they have after market HT leads fitted ? Although if the originals weren't numbered you could still make them fit running the #1 lead to #4
MM!

Nothing worse than having an H and not being able to scratch it !
