    Clean out all the ground fault

    I would like to share experience that after you clean out all the ground and rust plugs contact, you spark plug fire will be very strong and you can not imagine.
    On this Sunday, I replaced the two very old 9 pins plugs under the tank and the ignition key switch with a new 30A 4 pines plugs. All the light bulbs and hone are brighter and louder.
    Before that I already installed the Dyna S and green coils and good plus wire. I found the current passing through the coils was about 2A to each coils.
    Now I directly take the 12V power from the battery and using a power contactor to control this 12V supply to the coils. I use the original coils 12V supply wire to control this power contactor. So that the E-stop on the right hand side control switch still work to cut the coils supply.
    Now the current passing the coils is jump to 3A to each coil and the exhaust sound is very solid, throttle response is better, staring the engine is more easy( I do not know why staring is more easier, may be clean out some ground fault and now more power to the starter motor).

      This has been a "standard procedure" recommendation on this forum for years. In fact I personally recommend cleaning all connections on the bike annually.

        Noob question here: What exactly do you mean by cleaning out all the ground fault? Do you just undo wiring and clean all connections? My 750 is not firing right on #1, I checked the spark and it's very weak although it is there. I will be adjusting valves once the shims arrive but in the meantime I want to explore any possible problems. The bike sat for YEARS and I'm sure the wiring needs some cleaning...

        Any help would be appreciated!

          Yes that is exactly what it means. Pull apart and clean each connector and any place where a ground attaches to the frame or where ever. I found a few of my ground wires rubbed bare in various spots also so be on the look out. I try and run my fingers down all the wires I can get my hands on to feel for bad spots as well as look.
