HT lead extending...

Hello,

Want my coils to sit on the bulkhead shelf but the I need longer HT leads - who does these? I might also need new CBR 1000 coils since mine are a bit broken!

cheers

I have standard 98 'blade coils that you can have for some beer money + post (from the USA ) if you're interested. I have no idea if they will work for your application or not.

--Let me know, Chris

I extended my fireblade coils myself (as many others have).

I pulled the existing lead from the cap and unscrewed the other end from the coil and replaced with a longer length of cable. I used silicone cable that I got from VWP (very flexible stuff) and it was easy to get a good connection...they worked first time.

don't forget to reuse the olive on the coil end of the HT cable and use it on the new assembly.

There's a picture of the leads in my archive...can't figure out how to past pictures into a post?

Hi adam,

Cool idea but couldnt find the picture in your archive - would like to have a look though if there is a picture around?

Cheers

Hey Adam,

Cheers for the suggestion!

Lead arrived from VWP and all made up in double quick time!

Cheers for that - they work and look spot on
