Thanks, my coil is at 3.5 Ohms so I was wondering about changing it. Do you know what the resistance should be for each 6V coil if I go back to that? I presume 1.25 -1.5 Ohms as they're in series so the Lumenition sees 2.5 -3, but I'm no electrical engineer.

  I would check out the ignition coil resistance if it has
 the lumenition system fitted.  Google search lumenition
 coil resistance and you will find the lumenition technical
 data sheets.  Coil resistance should be about 2.5 - 3 ohms.
  If not look at changing the coils.  The two 6v coils in
 series work just fine on my Silk - will rev to 6000rpm
 cleanly.
 
 
 Hope this helps
