    Dyna coils vs stock

    I've got a 1981 GS1000G with stock coils. Would changing to Dynas make a noticable difference or should I just wait for the stock ones to die?

    Thanks

    If your stock coils are working properly you'll notice no difference with Dyna coils (other than your wallet being lighter!).

      Wait for the stock coils to die. Dyna's will offer no improvement over working stock coils.

        When I installed my Accell Supercoils, I picked up an extra 20 hp...Then another 5hp more with the 8mm yellow wires...

        You guys must be wiring them up backwards...

          Sure... the dyna's must have made at least 90hp difference to mine. (Oh yeah, that's because it wouldn't run with the old one... )

            I replaced with Dyna ignition, coils and HT wires and it was a difference like night and day. Coils were probably the least of the improvement, but I am sure they helped.

              I noticed a bit more reliable starting and smoother idling, mainly because the stock wires were in terrible shape.

              The coils themselves were fine, but the furshlugginger permanently attached wires (why, Suzuki, WHYYYY???) were toast.

              Upgrading the wires also vastly improved reliability and running when wet, for obvious reasons.
