Stick coils

29 Nov 2012 04:27

I was just wondering can I use stick coils on my 82 KZ1100 Spectre?

I'm going to on my 92 ZX11.

And I know completely different bikes just putting it out there. :woohoo:

I suppose you could, but you'd need the electrical harness that connects to them, and I'd imagine the triggering electronics. I think I've read about this recently, so "Google" the question. Possibly other Kawasaki forums have mentioned this.

All you need are the stick coils and the coil harness, should be able to get both for ~$50 on eBay.
Wire the coils in pairs in series so the ohms match the stock coils.

There was a good write up on bigbikeworld.com, but the site disappeared.
