On my R6 codes are stored, similar to an OBD II system even if the light isn't on. Really doesn't sound like you have much to go on. Have you been able to locate a FSM online or anything?
Yeah, I'm going to try to buy a ZX10RR tonight and I think I'm going to grab a manual. These kawi forums are sooooooooooo beat now. I definitely appreciate all the info. I could see what voltage the coils put out to determine if ones performing lower than factory's standard?

Usually you check coils by measuring resistance across the primary and then secondary coils. There is typically a spec in the manual for this. To bad its not a GSXR, I bought a set of GSXR coils on whim (well educated guess) for my super moto hoping they would work for a conversion, but they wouldn't clear the frame.

I jumper is basically connecting two wires to get a European to and that didn't meet American Standards for emissions. no this is all pretty fresh within the last 200 miles or so. All the mods have about 6k on them.

Yeah it's crazy how many of these parts fit both bikes. I ordered a fuel pump from a GSXR because they said they couldn't do it at my local dealership without buying the whole sending unit. $50 vs $391. so I pulled it out and swap the pump out just like I did all my Z cars and everything else I've ever worked on. Had the Mitsubishi part number right on the pump
