    '83 750 and '86 1150 - Coils interchangeable?

    I built new coils for my T from Bandit coils, new wires, caps, etc, and would like to put them on the 1150, if they'll work.

    How would one find out?

      Measure the resistance

      Assuming the coil resistance between the two are reasonably close, they should be equivalent. That is the main determinate I would say.

      Close means the ratio of one to the other is not more than +/- 25% (i.e. 0.75-1.25)

      Good Luck

        Bandit coils are interchangable with 1150 coils. Mount spacing is a different though.

            The resistance is the same, but they may not mount up exactly.

            I have a coil off an '85 GS700ES (same as the 1150) on my '81 GS750E (same as your T). It works fine, but it is bolted in the front and zip tied in the back due to the older coil being physically larger than the newer one.

                      In a weird way yes. Knowing you don't have a family and you live in a salt state.
