    Water ingress in ignition coil and spark plug cavity solution

    I have kept a spare set of coils since the first time I experienced water ingress. So I used this tape on all 8 coils and still had 1/3 left over. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    First of all, you don’t need that much of the tape. I kept it wide and thick, but you can do with less width if you think plumping tape is running out. Additionally I think you would be able to find similar products in Kyrgystan. Secondly, definitely get in touch when you are in Pakistan. The...

    Sorry for the late reply, yes regular plumbing tape. And surprisingly no damage to the tape after almost a year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Use any teflon tape. After more than a year, there is no visible damage to the tape or the coil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have attached just the photo, but the light only flashes for a second. And multiple times when I rev. But then all is normal. Any...

    Water ingress in ignition coil and spark plug cavity solution

    Hi, just wanted to share my work around ignition coil and spark plug cavity water ingress. Before I tried putting silicon to stop water from seeping in but without any luck. Tried this before my last 1800km trip and it worked wonders. Not a single drop of water went down to the chamber. And...

    2010 ST not starting after a successful 1800km tour. Help!!

    Gents, the issue got resolved. A friend told me that due to the trip there could be idle debris or something in the chamber, so try push starting the bike or connecting it to car battery through jumper cables. I connected the bike to the car battery and it took a second to start. Kept it...

    2010 ST not starting after a successful 1800km tour. Help!!

    Gentlemen, I just complete a 1800km tour to the mountains, which included snow, rain, water crossings (up to knee deep) and gravel. All went smoothly. Every time the bike started on first ignition. There were few bumps while crossing water channels but nothing serious. I came back, parked the...
