What I read was you have to find an older mechanical advance to go with the Dyna S to replace your electronic advance. After I heard that I'll stick with stock or go to the Dyna 2000 if I find one cheap.

Does the 82 have an electronic advance?
Most do. But I've seen '82s with the mechanical advance stock.
There are some factory mongrels out there -- I guess Suzuki liked to use up all their old parts before switching to the next model year parts.

I have (3) 82 GS1100GLZ(s) and they all have electronic advance. I installed the Dyna system and coils on one of them. Didn't find any advantage. Selectable spark curves, maybe good if your running nitro and need a retard curve. The rev limiter was comforting. I used the little pigtail and a ground wire to prevent "unauthorized" starting. Other than that, i think the advance curves offered less than the stock configuration. I took Dyna off, including the coils, and went back to stock.
Yup, G model '82 bikes (1100 and 850) have electronic advance, but 1100E has mechanical.
Dyna S has one big advantage over the stock ignition (with mechanical advance), a brand new kit costs $120 and includes the signal generators and replaces the ignitor. OEM ignitors alone cost several times that much $$.

I just checked 1983GS1100ED Mechanical advance

I have one ???. I guess it could have been modified by the PO, and it would be hard to tell one way or another. I do have an earlier 83 model apparently by serial # on the engine while I do have the 24 bolt cover.
The only other ignition changes seem to be the accel yellow coils. So I guess the Dyna S is still in the cards in case my ignitor goes out.

I did the Dyna S mod on my '82 1100E and it has the mechanical advance. Pull off the timing cover and look. If you see springs then it's mechanical.
