Hi guys,new poster with serious problem!! I have a gs850 bobber that I'm restoring and the issue I have is that I bought it as a non runner due to a blown dyna coil. Since then I have found that it has 1 harley coil and 1 dyna and no ignition module. I am thinking this was was to make it run a bit ruff so as to sound more authentic. I have replaced the dyna coil but not the harley as it was the dyna that was blown originally,the new dyna has now blown after being on the bike for approx 10 mins. I feel like I'm chasing my tail now so any help will be appreciated

This is not meant as being sarcastic, but how could it be doing anything without an ignition module? Do you mean that the ignition module was replaced with a Dyna-S ignition? How do you know the coil is blown?

Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.

Yeah that's what I was suppose say. The dyna coil actually split so was clear that it had blown but the harley coil is still fineComment

Unsure on the points situation,it's gone dark and cold here now so haven't got to them yetComment

Yes, knowing what year GS850 would help.
