It's here!

I fitted the front coil to my 100GS like this . . .

With a bracket made from angle iron, like this (you don't need both front bolts )

And not only that, but you did it in the middle of a field!

Some bright spark will be along to tell you soon

A more down to earth explanation please. I'm trying to be neutral about this. Too much technology and I blow a fuse. Easy to trip over some information or to go round too large a circuit. Maybe I should switch bikes, it's just a phase I'm going through. I've been insulated for far too long























Ok I'll get my coat

I haven't tried to fit it yet - Will it work with the standard HT leads?
If not I'm going to have to get hold of some replacements rather quick!!

Just bumping this to the top - As it's my thread and all

red wine does this to you...........especially if you are from the "wrong side of the Pennines

Sorry guys, but

I really need to know if the standard HT leads will work with the Dyna coil.
So I can order some if I need them!!

Guilty on both counts

I would think they will - try them

BUT it is always good to change the HT leads "every so often" - and especially it they have never been changed - they are not expensive

I prefer the normal BMW HT Black leads with the big rubber caps, (suppressors), I prefer the looks - you do not want any of that fancy brightly coloured stuff on your Bike

Same here - They look far better. They were changed about 1500 miles ago I think, but I think I'll order some more anyways.
Cheers for the advice.

Mine are carbon/silicone purchased from Dyna over 25 years ago & have been flawless. Not sure if you're gonna need top quality cables, however I have found it's one helluva spark.... Dyna advised that I increase my spark gap by 50%. That's on my CBX with the full Dyna S system mind you....

Morning Rob

You don't need any new ones if they are only 1500 miles old.............unless the Bike has been stood somewhere unpleasant for some time

Cheers

 

[DevonianScotsman]

That's ok then. I thought it would be a good idea to change them when I change the coil, but that sounds good.

Cheers.

Standard leads are fine - the bright yellow leads on my bike were on it when I bought it - with an old standard coil.

I read somewhere (Helpful Hints in a MotoBins catalogue I think) that HT leads should be replaced every three years.

No, I don't either .
