Coil confusion

#1 PostAuthor: Gus » Thu Mar 31, 2022 4:42 pm

Looking for a set of coils to use on the MK2 style transistorised ignition system.
Am I right in thinking I need 1.5 Ohm coils.
Does anybody know an aftermarket supplier of said coils with a 90mm mounting pitch?

Cheers

Gus.

Hi Gus

have a look at these:

just ask if they will fit your bike.

Gus I ditched the Ballast resistor and put green3 ohm Dyna's on mine and it has run faultlessly, so there is no good reason not to use the chinese Dyna copies :!:

Try Grumpy 1260 for the coils, he tends to have them in stock.

wemoto.com sell them also.

check whether they're 90mm or 100mm centres.

Thanks for the replies and leads guys.

After thinking last night my next question was going to be could I ditch the resistor.

Cheers again.
