Just noticed that on the Dyna S I just installed on my project bike that the two leads from the pickups are a black wire with a GREEN band where it is supposed to attach to the coil and a WHITE wire with a BLACK band where it is supposed to attach to the coil. I had considered the reasoning for putting the colored bands to indidcate one wire is supposed to be the 1/4 coil wire and one the 2/3 coil wire. Kaw almost always uses BLACK as the 1/4 wire and GREEN as the 2/3. Unfortunately, the bands were on the wrong wires. The white wire is coming off the right pickup which is the 2/3 pickup and it carries the black band. Go figure. Keep this in mind if you install these things and use the band colors as an indication of which coil to connect to.
maybe your advancer rotor is 180-out? Just a possibility.

The Dyna III rotor can go on either way, and if I recall, the Dyna S uses the same rotor.

Here´s what the installation sheet for the DynaS (DS2-2 for the 650) says:
"While holding it (the advance assy) with the 1-4 side pointing up, slip the DynaS rotor over the shaft. A magnet approximately 1/4 inch in diamter will be noticed on the side of the rotor. This magnet must face to the left when the 1-4 side on the advancer assembly is pointing up. Spread the weights and push the rotor down until it engages the weights."
But the color codes are still backwards. Didn´t realize it was a common problem until now, just figured they messed up the one I got, they should be told.

I'm glad that I was able to double check this.
