The Dyna III is on sale now $99,you'll need to get either the D33-1 or most likely the D33-2, you'll also need the mechanical advancer and the plate with the static timing mark from under the old, points/pick-up coil base plate from an earlier model GS, I know for sure up to and including the 82 1100s and at least 81 750s had them,as did most other sizes of the earlier years that I'm aware of, before they switched to doing it electronically in the module in'83, I think

My 82' gs1100gl has electronic ignition.
You can purchase a Dyna 2000 which has a replacement signal generator and new control (igniter) that has several spark advance choices and an adjustable rev limiter. With this unit you don't need the advance unit from an older model. IT IS PRICEY.
 
Dyna 2000 is the only plug and play option you have for a replacement without having to buy extra parts.

the Dyna III on sale requires the mechanical advancer from an older bike (like mine)...so i'd look at the Dyna 2000, which will probably cost less then a CDI box from Suzuki.

They said you can't? or is that a misspell? I believe you can, using the 81 mech. advancer and the provided spacer which comes in the kit, also need the plate with static timing mark
 
Dave.. i got many responses to that advice given to me by the tech help. I think ( I am deaf.. so my aunt made the call) that the call was placed with the parts warehouse and not Dyna. Regardless.. i have been assured that yes.. u are correct.. the older advancer can be used with the D33-2... and it will work fine. This man specifically said.. "you CANNOT convert the newer set back to the older mechanical advance."
