Ignition Question was created by mopguy
I am restoring a 1978 KZ1000 LTD. Should I install electronic ignition or leave the old system? Leave stock coils or replace? Thanks for advice.Tony (mopguy) in Toronto.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

Tony, I can't really tell you what you should do, but I'll give you my opinion. I really like the electronic ignition on my bikes. One computer controlled wiz bang zx-10r, one KZ1000 with a Dyna 2000 and one GS750 with a Dyna S. Not a big fan of points myself. The electronic stuff doesn't require as much maintenance.
