I have been looking to replace my original coils since last year when I bought the bike.
The main motivation that I had was that the idle would get progressively worse while driving around in town during hot days. Eventually the idle would get so bad that the bike would stall out.
I went thru Seafoam treatment and got the carbs running well. Took a look at the battery and charging system - thinking that may contribute - especially when the fan would kick in.
In the end, the bike ran great, but was still likely to stall out during slow stop lights, when the temp needle was above half. I could also replicate this by just letting it idle in the garage until the temp rose above halfway on the gauge.
So now the good news.
COPS installed, let the bike idle up to the fan kicking in - no further stalling issues.
Beside that, I thought I had a crazy monster bike before - but now it is an insane experience.
Crisp throttle response, smooth power delivery. Pulls noticeably stronger than before.
Wow.
