Mine were all getting on for 10% low and that's enough to put the all-up resistance into an uncomfortable area.

it ran on 3 cylinders before the aw82-tr option and ran on all 6 for a day after the big op.....now i 'm back to square 1 with only 3 cylinders working.... so i guess the next thing, (short of taking the pile of junk and over the next 100 ft cliff) is replacing the aw82-tr coils with either accel or dyna coils.......

You don't think it might be igniter (or whatever it's called) or loom related do you?
Especially if your lovely AW82 coils all buzz through OK, although loss of 3 cylinders isn't consistent with the paired coil supply and (I assume) 3 x igniter outputs for the 3 coils.
Any chance you may be running on 2 or 4 cylinders?
I guess the easy tests are either pulling the plug leads individually or feeling the header tubes shortly after start.
(apologies if your feedback is already based on all these!)
The cliff option is an interesting one, those 41mm forks should hold up well, but my concern is due to the weight it'll end up half embedded into the ground below and every time you pass that way you'll see that numberplate grinning up at you...

Note that 1 coil feeds 2 cylinders are you sure you are dead on three cylinders? And if so, which 3 are dead? This wiĺl help determine the problem.met1212 wrote: i tried the aw82-tr option.....and it was all a waste of time and money.

When you changed the coils , did you happen to change the spark plugs too?
