Any one use stick coils?
03 Dec 2012 18:39
Is anyone running the coil over the plug (stickcoils) on their KZ's? A guy over on the Concours site wires em up and sells them for our Connies. Works well.

Pretty easy to wire them up, just wire each two in series so they act like to coils to the igniter/points.
I added them on to my ZX11, but since they're controlled by MegaSquirt in my case, I wired them singly so I have sequential spark. If it's worth doing then it's worth overdoing.
Tough part on the KZs is finding some short ones.

OK guys who's got ZX11's I have a 92 ZX11c.
I'm thinking of putting them on my 82 KZ1100 Spectre and if their to long maybe making a brace for them something like a four hole brace for the stick coils.

Had not thought about the height. They sit in deep wells on the concours.
