Bandit or GSXR coils (other than the individual coils that are part of the spark plug cap) will work on your bike. Or, you can use coils from any four cylinder GS and they will work too. You should be able to find a used set of coils on ebay for about $20-$30.
Bear in mind that the only coils that will not require a bit of minor modding to mount directly up are coils off of an '83-'86 GS550E/ES/L, or off an '83-'85 GS750/700E/ES.
The other coils should fit in with a bolt in one mounting hole and a zip tie through the other hole to mount it in place securely.sigpic

Unless there was just no way I could possibly afford anything else, there is no way I'd buy a set of coils without removeable wires.
