+1
Dyna plug wires have the caps/boots already installed.
Would recommend the Dyna 7mm copper core from Z1E:

I've worked with wire/cable from 28 gauge up to 4/0 in size. I enjoy helping riders with their bikes electrical problems...

1.As supplied from Kawasaki with a 1/4" wide push on connection.
2.The screw terminal type, with brass terminals for the ring terminals to attach to.
3.An ignition coil with a short "Pigtail" wire harness using "Bullet" connectors to mate with the main wiring harness for the primary windings.

1.Use them with the screw on sparkplug caps like your bike came with.
2.Buy the NGK sparkplug wire "Splice" and connect the sparkplug wires you want to the Emgo coil wires.
3.Not buy the Emgo coils and buy either Dyna 3 ohm green coils or Accel coils and then you can use any 7mm sparkplug wires you want.

No, wires are molded in. Just get a set of NGK screw on caps and you are done. I have been running them for years.newowner79kz750b1 wrote: are the wires on the emgo coil removable though?
