Coil cross-reference

[mmtallman]

Hey, was wondering if the stock coils for an 81 GS550 would fit an 82 GS850 - short of replacing the wires themselves, can't seem to find anything to make this easy, except the wires on the 81 look in great condition compared to the cracked ones on the 82. So if I replace the wires/coils would make it a little easier, at least I hope so.

Thanks for any advice!

Should work fine - the mounting brackets & such may be a bit different, but the coils are the same, stock 5 ohmn coils...

You can zip-tie them to the frame if the holes are way off.

Much thanks If it doesn't rain tomorrow, might be doing some surgery

They will work. Just depends on if the wires are long enough. They are both 3 ohms
