I bought an '03 new and it had single spark with a conventional ignition coil under the tank. My '04 is twin spark with stick coils on the primary plug (top/end of jug) and secondary which is under the jug. I've replaced both stick coils as they failed under 40K. I've 90K+ on them and still strong. The secondary coils are fine. If the stick coils fail again I'm going to the Ford F-150 ignition coil.
FWIW the Rockster came out in '03, and they are ALL twin-spark heads.
