Praise for Wired George

Just a quick note to say - wired georges coil rewiring tip - should be mandatory in order to get membership on the site, instant improvement in idle, clean plugs - smooth running and more power - and all for little or no investment and about 2 hours work.should be the starting point for all!

i still havn't done the coil mod do you think my kz1000r would benefit?
or is it for the older zed's.

No benefit if you already have good voltage to the coils. prefer less contraptions in the electrical system. I just clean the switches and fix wiring problems.

The relay method is a good shortcut if you don't want to fix the wires, switches, etc.

So I guess I'd have to forfeit my membership, then.

All i can say is - it worked wonders for my 78 650. Checked the coil voltage (engine off) before mod - less than 10 volts ( battery is good) - Coil voltage after mod - 11.97.
Idle inmproved and plugs that were previously sooty - now nice light tan colour.Engine is smoother right through the range - i have dyna s ignition and dyna coils/wires - plugs were bad even on this set up untill i wired according to WG's plan.DIfferent Bike.!!!

The Dyna uses so much excess current, the relay will really make a difference on that setup. I prefer the factory electronic ignition since it uses far less current.

I went through the loom from end to end cleaned and tightened every connection - wiring is my stock and trade - 30 year old switchgear on the bars was the root of my issue and cleaning didnt improve.

each to his own !

WG has been a huge help to me on the carbs on a lot of my other bikes too, not just Kawasakis along with the coil mod

voltage was checked before and after mod with engine not running - and improvement in voltage noted as in previous post - no load on anything - therefore sdditional load taken by Dyna S - is irrelevant as its only there when running.

wait a second....first a bunch of folks talk bad about folks that help out .....and now you guys are saying people that help folks out are good.....
now which one is it gonna be...helping is good....or helping is bad....i am so confused

All i wanted to point out was - this really worked for me and should be starting point for any one with an older bike - and also to give a little thanks for a genuinely usefull tip - if someone else thinks is pointless thats there opinion.

I havent used this forum much but have only found people on here to be extremely helpfull over all - in fact I've only gotten good advice/help and am gratefull for all of it.

I think i'll leave it there

no dude my joke is in 110% support of your thanking him....he helps tons of folks on here...i think that is a coil mod i gotta do too.....
sorry if i seemed to poke fun at your post....the exact other is what i meant...he is a cool dude....craig

My bike had 14v at the coils, but I decided to do the mod anyway. Of course there was no difference, but I figure the bike could only benefit in the long run. Even if this mod does fail for some reason, I have all the old wiring in tact, so this mod basically cost me nothing but time (already had the relay and wiring).
