you are so correct. i love having another 954 around. (plus 2 other heads, and another full motor)
yes they should
i'm in fort myers. just out of curiousity, what did the plugs look like? does he keep losing the same cylinder?
yes they should
Yes, it is. I was pretty sure though that if the plugs and coil fixed the problem that I would not be getting them back though LOL.
So anyway, he went back out and took my rectifier to swap out. He said as soon as he plugged it in he heard a pop, from a fuse possibly. I guess it wouldn't start and that's when he came back inside. I am sure he will be messing with it before work this morning too.
I am in Sarasota County, between Tampa and Fort Myers. West coast.

Well hell! OK, you are close enough to come riding with us! I am in Englewood.
I don't think he knows which cylinder he is losing. here are the plugs. The first and third look pretty burnt up, but "supposedly" they were new last week.
He's giving up and having me drop it off at the shop tomorrow mid-morning.

right on, englewood's not too far at all.
those plugs look great. so its definitely not a motor issue. and you've replaced known-to-work coils, coil wires, plugs, right?
so that leaves fuel.... if i'm thinking straight. you should have (if you replaced the coils, plugs, etc. with your's off of your bike) ignition, you should have compression (otherwise those plugs would be black with oil), so that leaves you with getting the fuel to make the thing go bang.
has he tried running it with a touch of choke after it feels like it's dropping a cylinder? if that helps, then it's something with the carb....
i know that it's intermittent - and that's usually electrical, but this is something new to try

The shop said the same thing conrice. Fuel problem. I dropped it off this morning, but they will not be able to look at it until Friday
This is going to be a looong week/end LOL
At least I got him to put my coils and rectifier back on my bike
