complete rewire

[Guest]

Have got my gs ready to rewire .Its a gs1260 so is big bored etc. So needs big current to turn over and want big current to fire it .
Am going to wire in the coil relay mod ...but was wondering what other mods are desireable for the gs. DONT want to have to redo something in the NEXT 20 years lol
So what are recommended mods You would do to it now???

One common suggestion for big-bores is to install some sort of delay for the ignittion circuit. That will allow you to spin the crank a few revolutions to get some momentum into it, then allow the plugs to fire.

Personally, I think the coil relay mod is over-used. Too many times, it is applied as a Band-Aid to cover some other problem. Since you are apparently starting from scratch, it really shouldn't be necessary.

If you can't shut your headlights off, might want to due the relay mod so they shut off while you are hitting start button and come on as soon as you let go. terrylee
