Ignition

There are two ignition coils on the 850 T3 connected to a circuit breaker. Also the wiring diagram surprises me alot. Being accustomed to the Kawasaki's single coil that is practically one wire in and a think one coming out, it is much more difficult to service. I don't know why the circuit breaker only has one set of wires coming out of it when it look as if there should be two.

I temporally assembled the two screws on the indicator lights next to the tach and speedometer so I could get a picture of that. I find it really cool there's a brake light indicator on there, and this reminds me I need to fix the neutral light on the Kawasaki instead of slipping the clutch or killing the engine to find neutral on it.

I also applies some blue RTV gasket maker to the valve covers because they were missing their regular gaskets. This will (hopefully) prevent oil from spraying everywhere when reved up. Last time I replaced a valve cover gasket it was on my Mazda and when it revs up oil sprays all over the wind shield.
