Love my children, but finally have a weekend with some spare time :D

Popped to to have another look at the Z1000 - fitted the borrowed Dyna-S (cheers PJ) with the borrowed hex-washer (cheers GB).

Got a strong spark now and fuel at the plugs :D - have had 1 backfire - more than I had before :D - have the battery on change and have another go in a while - fingers crossed :roll:

Heath Robinson home-made tester to make sure I have the correct coil connected to the correct side of the Dyna-S - using a couple of spare indicators and hand cranking the engine.
