| S4R Ignition Coils..... My 10 month old pride and joy S4R has been off the raod for over a week now having had to be recovered to main dealers because of failure of the front cylinder ignition coil (the thing that looks like a fancy HT cap!) Im told by main dealers that this is a very rare occurance. Am I just unlucky, or is there in fact a history of such failures? The symptoms were a sudden and dramatic misfire on front cylinder after covering around five miles. It was obviously a coil fault as swapping them around also migrated the problem. Luckily it was covered under waranty as Im told the cost of a replacement is around £114.00!! but to be honest I'd rather purchase a spare than do without bike for a week again, or worst still, be stuck with a single cylinder bike miles from anywhere!!
