i'd like to hear what anyone recommends for new coils and igntion for an '82 1100ez

if anyone has already doen this i'd appreciate hearing what they used and how things worked out

thanks for all help!
 
I found Dyna S ignition and 3 Ohm (green) coils for about $100. Got em on dragbikeparts.com I think. I think they had been sitting around somebody's shop for a while. I had to make little brackets for the coils but I'm happy so far.
 
Dyna's are great, you can also use late model coils also from a Bandit or similar engine. For the ign Dyna is also the choice

Say Isaac
If you ever get a chance, would you post a photo of the bracket you made. Ive never been satisfied with the fit i have for my dyna coils. ---Yes they seem to work fine also. 3 ohm green
 
Scotty,
I had to email you the picture. I don't know where I can upload pictures to a public website. I sent it to the first link in your post. Let me know if you didn't receive. Maybe you can post a link to it if you think anyone else is interested.

Heya, I'm new here, but have a quick question about the coils. Would these sam 3ohm coils from Dyna work on a 1980 GS750E? I'm looking for new ones to replace the stock coils, but can find no tech info on which ones will work. I assume they will since there's not much difference between th4 750s and the 1100s, but I need to make sure. Thanks. :)
 
3 ohm coils will work. The main issue is whether you have to replace the leads to get the right length, and fitting them to the brackets. Electrically they are ok.
 
Thanks, I'll look for some of those.
BTW, are the 3 ohm ones the ONLY ones that'll work, or will 2.5 ohm coils work as well? I know I've seen different ohm ratings on different coils, but I have no idea where to find the info I need to know what'll work on my bike. Thanks.
 
My Suzuki service manual says any resistance reading between 2 and 5 ohms is within service limits. Commonly, you will find the coils to be between 3 and 4 ohms.
