Warranty form asks for "GVWR, GWF, and GWR information" which is supposedly located on the VIN plate. Anyone know this information for me? I'm not nearby my ninja and may not be for a while.

Kenda contacted me back overnight and gave me a warranty form to fill out. After submitting that, the rep said that she will forward my video and claim to the tech department for review.

I was afraid of that. I've contacted Kenda through email and sent a link to the video. Hopefully we can get this fixed.

That would explain why nothing I did seemed to cure the issue, though!

This was without anything, just plain ol' unleaded fuel. Probably worth quite a bit due to the rising gas prices here, though!

Go fishing and good luck. I dropped a socket in there while doing valves. Thought it was lost forever but I was able to get it out with a magnetic reach tool.

I went ahead and got new coils+wires off ebay. Figured it couldn't hurt, and I got a decent deal. So that's what is going on now, just waiting for those.

Measuring it was exactly what I was going to do, only I tried the other wire on the "bad" plug and it went down flush with the valve cover. The bad wire does not go down all the way on the good plug....
