    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Looks good, but hard to say.....only one review on e-bay. Always check reviews
 
Nobody used them? Price is inexpensive for a drop in kit. Contacted seller waiting on responce. If the plug wires screw into the coil(replaceable) will buy them and give a review. Got a bunch of relays left over from a engine swap in a car, so will do the coil/relay mod. at the same time.

Huh , I check feed back scores to make sure seller isn't a flake , never looked at the reviews as got no idea if reviewer is a flake. Usually only deal with a few sellers on fleabay, too many people trying to sell junked out part$$$... Just been the last couple months ebay has been sending me request to review purchases. Never done it. Though I do post up reviews on a couple mopar and truck forums I go to for assistance. But I digress, this is more for another post on ebay.
 
review kind of ... time will be the judge

review kind of ... time will be the judge

Unboxed them today. OK product. no name caps, no name coils , solid 8 strand copper wires maybe 6mm.Cables are held in the coil with externally locking clips (see pics) to replace with a 7-8mm wire set would be a PTA , though the caps supplied would take a large dia. cable. Kit is complete with everything to install. Coils are a bit more compact then the stock ones. Hardest part of the install was loosing the fasteners on the original coils. Noticed no difference after install compared with originals. Did the relay mod, again noticed no difference, but the bike was running fine in the first place, so no surprise. I replaced because one of the plug wires had melted a bit at sometime in the past and been wrapped with rubber tape. Bugged me and did not want to see how it ran in the rain like that. Whole process took me 3 hours but I soldered my connectors and use heat shrink . Did get to use the trick of super glueing the lock washers to the nutz to make it ez'r to bolt the coils to their brackets. Bottom line , I would use them again and would recommend them if on a budget. If it was a bike I planned on keeping would go and spend the extra $$$ and get the Dyna greens. Have them on my KZ and they are a much nicer units. But you do have the expense of getting the wire and caps on top of the cost of the greenies... So I went the more affordable route this time.

Whole reason I did this was to start making this bike to be water proof.
