    plugs/wires

    I will be doing a tune up on my new bike (82 GS1100) I need to get spark plugs and wires. Since I am going to buy new ones anyway I was curious if there were any performance options on these, or are the factory spec ignition parts the best option?

    also, I need to find some good mailorder companies for parts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks

    I have had good luck with Z1 Enterprises. They have really been helpful and patient with me everytime I have dealt with them. Their prices are very good too. The owner (Jeff) also is a GS Resource member and frequently responds to post. http://www.z1enterprises.com/default.aspx

        Have you already modified your coils to allow the wires to be removed. another wire option is an accel 7mm automotive kit. I can make 2 sets of/4 excellent wires for such a reasonable price.

            Lots of the gang just slowly and carefully dig out the glue that holds the original wires in place. I never did it i just used dyna replacement coils. Ask and lots of the gang know how to do it. I cant help there. Sorry

                  i believe the primary is a 2 to 5 ohm. Dont you have a service manual???
                  again i will be corrected if im wrong. I think my dynas are 3 ohm. Its been a few years.

                    Just my 2 cents, If you are going with the Dyna the coils you want are GREEN. 3 ohms.

                      You can get low mieage GSXR, Bandit, or Katana coils on Ebay usually for about $30 a set that are just like your originals.
