ignition swap from kz650f to kz650b was created by vict182
Hi all
I'm restoring a kz650b
I have a kz650f sitting for spares
how easy would be to take the ignition parts from the F and replace the points system from the B?
i mean, which parts should i replace?
thanks

You need the coils, the timing plate with pickups, the advancer rotor, and the igniter.
This is assuming the f uses mechanical advance. If the f uses electronic advance, I'm not positive the pickup plate will fit in the motor, possibly with a little modification.

In the USA the F still used points.

Here's a post showing how I converted a kz1000 electronic igniton to fit an early kz650;

I have since switched to an '80s kz650 eletronic pickup plate.
