    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.

Why it its important to resistance match coils

The Dyna 2000 will work fine with the 3ohm coils... it says so in the instructions. The 2.2ohm ones just give it the most "bang".

That would appear to be a result of stress from the way it is bolted down coupled with vibration....

That's what i thought, but a continuous crack all the way around? And the two halves aren't wobbly or loose but very firmly anchored in place as though no flexing took place. The pri resistance is 0.01Ω and the secondary is 13.81KΩ according to my DVOM. I was just riding 2 days ago, and it drove fine into the garage. I always leave the key in the ign and this time i found it in the ON position...coincidentally i found the IGN fuse blown and this cracked coil. *grr* I think they're related.

...i blame the factory points, and my dumas.

That looks like a stress fracture and not a melt-down.

I agree, but wouldn't the halves have some free-play, and the core be distorted? All the same, i need to figure out how it shook that bad so it doesn't happen again, and I didn't HEE-MAN tighten the retaining bolts. *sigh*

Dyna 2K and coils arriving in next hr.
