Second plug is up underneath the cylinder. Looks like a single plug head just looking at it.

Pretty cool to put 60K on a bike you know and love, and then get a chance to do it all over again … for free!

Well played!

Re: " new " bike

To Dan and Crash - Thanks for the info - Alan and I were wondering about this last night. Have to go back now and look at the exploded version of the double ignition cylinder and see how we missed that.

OMG what a pain.

Re: " new " bike

Congrats on the "new" bike!

Walt just acquired a "new" silver 2000 R1100RS (like his blue one that has 140,000 miles) that had only 42,000 miles when he got it. He's happy to put more miles on his "favorite" bike!!
