    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

its been a while since i have done anything to the bike and i thought, "what better way to start off then to do the coil relay mod!" well i got it all up and running, and its so satisfying to hear the CLICK! of a relay. i just need to know one thing. which color wire goes to what coil. there are two orange, which go to the relay, a white wire, and a black wire. which wire goes to coil 2&3 and which one goes to 1&4? thanks!

I believe orange and black go to one side, and orange and white go to the other side. I believe orange is switched power, and the black and whites are either the control or a ground, i cant remember that part.
 
the orange wires were power before, and those become the "sense" or "control" wires with the coil relay mod. the white and black wires are the triggers from the ignition module to tell each coil when to fire. i just need to know what wire goes to which coil. the black one is longer so ill connect that to the farther coil and report back tomorrow since its too late to start it now.
 
i appreciate the contribution, but that wouldn't have helped me without knowing what cylinders are being fired from that coil. fortunately, you are right because i started it in the garage and it ran. so my respect for you is not totally lost.:eek::D:D:D

:eek::p well, it'd be a simple matter of swapping them if it didn't fire :D
