plug wires

[Sean]

I have a 1982 gs850 and i want to change the plug wires.

what is the best brand, and the best place to get them?

I HAVE STOCK WIRES. BUT I SEE ALOT OF GS'S WITH ACCEL COILS. THERE YELLOW. CAN PROBABLY GET THEM FROM BIKEBANDIT, DENNIS KIRK OR EVEN EBAY.

You can't just replace your spark plug wires easily, since they are soldered into the coil with some kind of filler epoxy around them I believe and are sold as one piece. But it can be done, if your willing to hassel it. Do a search on "changing and plug and wires", there are several threads on how to go about it, if you really think its necessary. The only other way to change them is to buy new coils. Tarbash screamed out some good places to start looking, but most GSers on this forum replace their coils with "Dyna" coils. A search on that will point you in the right direction as well.

I buy the accell 7 mm V8 auto kit and can make 2 sets of wires from them for a 4 cyl bike.
Some folks have gotten the witres out of the stock coils. I dont remember the method.
