inigion problem with 1979 gs1000E
I have a 1979 gs1000E that i am have an ignition problem with on the 2-4 cylinders. The bike has 12000 miles on it. I put new valve seals in it and after trying to start it again found that the 2-4 cyls were not getting spark. I switched that coil to the 1-3 side and it produced spark to the plugs. I am thinking points or condenser. I do have power to the 2-4 coil but not producing a spark anyone have ideas as what to look for next. The points do look just as good as the ones for the 1-3 cylinders.

First of all, 1 and 4 are on one coil, 2 and 3 are on the other. If the points are good and the coil is good there's not a whole lot left in there. How is the power to the + side of the coil? (orange and white wires)
If it is not close to 12 volts, try a hotwire to test it out and if it helps think about doing the relay mod. -
When sitting on the bike, the left coil should have its spark plug wires connected to the #1 and #4 cylinders. The coil on the right side should have its spark plug wires connected to the #2 and #3 cylinders.

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. H.D.T.Comment

Maybe a bad connection between the coil and spark plug cap?Comment
