Got them with the bike. Got eveything ready to give the bike a test start up (hasn't run for awhile) and it wouldn't shoot off.

Checked and I've got fuel/air... go to check spark.

Right side coil has 0 output. :(

Lucky for me I've got a set of 87' Ninja HO coils in the garage that can be made to work, so I'll run those instead.

I hate electrical stuff. haha

Are you sure it's the coil...did you swap it with the left coil to see if the right works on the left's connections? If it does it might be the ignitor...rather then the coil.

Concur with jack2006.

And could check for battery voltage across coil primary terminals with ignition on to assure voltage to coil. Space is usually tight, so be sure not to short against frame. :)

Checked that. Power TO the coils is good on both sides. No output from the right side coil at all though.

Didn't swap the coils, but did swap a wire and plug fromt he right coil to the left... and lo and behold it fired on that side. lol
