Hi Guys,

Still wrestling with my  loss of power problem.

Just wondering what folks do if they need to replace leads...?

The Honda ones are out of stock in Europe and there's a 4 week wait from japan. tickedoff tickedoff

Any ideas / recommendations?

I did consider second hand ones - but I'd rather not go that route as I could just import fresh problems...

How reliable are the OEM's anyway?

Many Thanks

You can't do better than OEM and Pinwall has a load of them usually less that 50 bucks and includes the coils also.

I just bought bulk, black, copper core wire from O'Rilley's Auto Parts for $0.65 per foot. Reuse the plug boots and you're done: ~$12 total.

I replaced 2 wires number 3 a 4 on my standard,which  solved my intermittent problem, which I suspected as wires, got them used but found a place to get new very reasonable, I think the wires like everything will go belly up after a time. power sports plus 877-833-0846, seems like the wires where around 20.00 a piece. not bad.
