Steve, would you say the Dyna 5.0 Ohm set is the best match with the stock points?

Yes. 4 or 5 will work. I have some stock 4 ohm coils but took them off because they drew too much power. They had a hotter spark and I was happy with them. When I went back to the 5's I could tell right away. I've gone LED on all my turn/running lights so I can put them back in.

Stock coil on mine (also has points) is 4 Ohms but 5 Ohm coil will work.

Steve, I purchased those coils (caltric) I think, garbage! The first one pooped out after a day, the eBay seller sent a second asap and it left me stranded a week later, funny thing is after they stopped working they still measured in spec with my multi meter? Anyway bit the bullet and bought a stock kawasaki coil from dealer, works perfectly as expected.

I just checked his feed back. 60 negative in the last month. Chinese. Sorry. I won't buy or recommend them anymore.
