whats the difference between the 1982 gl ignitor box? there are 2 kinds.....a small one and a larger one the shape of a box.

I've wondered that too. On my 1100E, it's a box but in the parts fiche it's a smaller one... I bet they're the same thing.

Thought so... I think my igniter came from a GS1100 ET/EX.

Mine looks like this.

But it's supposed to have this.

But the bike runs very well so it's all good, right?

EDIT: GODDAMN! My bike is like a frankenstein, parts from different bikes put together...

Same ignitor just one is smaller.
On the GL one may be for mechanical advance and the other for the curve built in?
