Gen 2 2008 fz1s fazer: Yesterday I attempted to go for a ride, on starting off the bike bogged a little but off we went to some traffic lights where we stopped. Same thing happened again, had to rev more than usual to pull away. This happened several more times so ride was aborted and home.
I’m guessing that it may be related to a coil. I’ve ordered new plugs as it does need a change so will be doing them. I took out the LH side coil out today (nearside) and did a test as shown on YouTube, the primary test showed up as 3.1 ohms and tha secondary was 9.45 k ohms.
I gather the first result is classed as a fail (as per manual instruction) the secondary falls into the pass range.
(I must add that I’m in no way electrically savvy so relied on YouTube for help)
Do you think I’m on the right track with my checking.......I intend to check the other 3 coils when I change the plugs?
Another thing.......I ordered the plugs as per the handbook, but when I removed the plug today it looked like the pic in the manual (earwig tail shape) but the new plugs ordered look like a conventional plug. (NGK/ CR9EK)
Any advice appreciated.
