Dynatek coils 81 gs750?

[Guest]

Hey guys I'm asking this question because I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I've been through a million posts on this forum but can find a specific answer. I have an 1981 gs750L totally stock and I want to upgrade my coils because I'm going on my fist multi day road trip and one of the coils on my 850 just crapped out the other day. From what I can see everyone favors the dynatek green coils over the acell coils. My question is when I check my coils I get 3.8 and 3.6 ohms on the primary side which is good. Now does this mean that I need 3 ohm coils even though it's closer to 4 ohms? I'm assuming it does but just wanted some reassurance. Also I read that is ok to go up to 5 ohm coils but not to go lower then the stock coil ohms. It is an inductive type ignition also correct? Non cdi. Thanks for any help

If it were me, I wouldn't worry too much about your coils going out. It's a very rare instance when a coil on a GS actually fails. In most cases it's either connector or igniter related issues. If you do decide to change them out then go with the green 3ohm Dyna's.
