Dyna 2000 and GS750ES

[Mario Padilla]

FYI, the dyna 2000 ignition does not work on the 1983 GS750ES. I was looking at installing this ignition system on my bike and have run across the following issue. The pickup plate does not fit on the bike. The factory plate uses two mounting screws (180 degrees apart) where the dyna 2000 has three slotted holes. The diameters are different (dyna 2000 plate is a larger diameter). Finally, the dyna 2000 plate is a full circle where the factory plate has a cutout to clear the pressure switch.

Pressure switch?? What kind of pressure switch would you have on a ignition breaker plate?

I should have been more clear, the oil pressure switch is mounted on the block just below the crank and the factory siganl generator plate has a semi circle cutout to clear this switch.

I ordered the Dyna 2000 system for my '85 GS700. I was able to modify the signal generator plate to fit in the crank, but it wasn't easy. Also, it has to be held out, that is raised up about 3/8", so that the rotor magnet passes by the pick-ups at the right spot.

It runs OK, but it is fixed in the stock postion rather than able to be rotated as it was designed. The slotted screw mounts in the dyna plate allow for a tunable degree advance. I just drilled holes in the dyna plate at stock advance.

I plan to take the modifications I needed to make on the Dyna plate and have a new one custom machined complete with slotted mount holes and smaller diameter.

Richard, dig that bobtail in your avatar. Got a bigger pic?
