    Barkston, Yes, they fit and work perfectly and are delivered promptly.

    Replaced one last week.

    If you have the bike in bits to change the front coils anyhow, it's only another half hour to move them. I have just moved mine yesterday, as well as changing the fuel connectors and air filter while I was in there.

    Can I ask what fuel connectors you used please? One of mine is done and one still needs doing. The one remaining is the one nearer to the rear of the bike, is it just a case of plastic ones out, metal ones in and jubilee clips or similar?

    Thanks

    Post 57 of this thread gives part numbers, I bought them from eoxshop. Didn't need the screw in one for the tank as it had already been done, presumably from new.

    Thank you, part numbers noted, will sort next week.

    Just to be sure, the female connector is valved, the male not valved? These are for the connectors that are NOT for the pipe to the one that screws into the tank.

    Thanks

    Those are the so-called "Amrish" coils that were developed just for the Capo in conjunction with Ugly58.
    Sadly, Amrish sold the company to his brother - and the price doubled. I queries it and got some waffle about manufacturing costs rising steeply. More like the fuel for his Porsche.
    Sod that, modified French car coils for me!
    I'd like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.
    The appropriate number of cylinders for any motorcycle is two.
