Does anyone know of any suitable spark plug caps to replace the originals, I'm having trouble finding a pair of genuine caps in the UK. Is there a suitable alternative...TDM maybe?
Thinking these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/YINETTECH-Spar ... NW85YX9QTH
Further to the above, I'm getting a 12k ohm reading on each cap, Haynes states 10k, interweb states 5k, which is right? Does 12k indicate the caps need replacing?
Thanks, James

I normally go to electrex first for any electrical parts. Closest to original for stators, coils etc.

Re: Replacement spark plug caps
Thanks charliext1vj,
I have the Fowlers app, what a waste of time that is as it doesn't list the plug caps. I got a pair from CMS in the Netherlands, arrived in two days - 124 euro for the pair delivered. Bike now runs fine.
