      So my 600 has been hard to start lately. It's got 2 ignition coils. Noticed one of the ground cables missed it's retaining screw, it was also plenty of surface rust on there.

      I'll sort it tomorrow, just want to hear what you guys think.

        @Irongamer727 Strip it all down, give it all a damn good clean and de-rust, then re-install it ensuring a good grounding occurs. Once installed apply a blob of Vaseline to the ground points to prevent further rusting - works a treat and lasts a long time too!!! 😉

        SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!
