    1982 GS850G Coil mount & connections

    I am helping assemble a bike I did not dismantle (yes I am a little crazy!)
    Thus 1982 Australian delivered bike has Nippon Denso coils which are very different coils to my 1980.
    What I have with the 1982 is:
    No identifying numbers left on any of the plug leads.
    Of course I know which coil serves each two cylinders 1/4 & 2/3 by the angled plug tops on the 1/4 leads.
    However, I do not know which lead goes to each cylinder without numbers?
    I also do not know if the coils should be mounted with the plug leads in the direction of front or rear of bike (they will fit either way but which is correct?)

    Each coil has a Positive and a negative terminal marked.
    One coil has the following wires:
    Black with yellow stripe.
    Orange with white stripe

    The other coil has:
    Plain white
    Orange with white stripe

    Which are positive and which are negative?

    Left coil, O/W supply W gnd. Plugs 1&4
    Right coil, O/W supply B/Y gnd. Plugs 2&3
    Seen coils backward and front. Mine have HT leads exiting at the back. Don't think it matters a lot.
