  1. Hi fellow suzuki riders, I have a problem with my 1982 suzuki gsx1100. I have two dead cylinders 2 and 4, but 1 and 3 runs ok. I can start it which is quite hard and ride it at 27km/h at FULL throttle, which is even harder. I have a new battery on, around 120 psi cold compression on all four, completely rebuild carburetors(ultra sonicly cleaned) and newly refurbished cylinder head with adjusted valves. When i went through the wiring and testing of it, i meassured the coils primary to 1.8ohm and secondary to 26.5k ohm, on both coils, which is within specs as what i could tell from my haynes manual. I then came to the ignitor and noticed that it became untouchably hot after just a few seconds. Can this cause my possible misfiring conditions of the 2 cylinders and poor performance and how in the world do i fix it? I should mention that i gave it a new wiring harness with a Moto Gadget M-unit blue, original rectifier and starter. Thank you Morten
  2. Hi all, almost no hair left now after rebuilding my GT500. Now I know it was fitted with pointless ignition but this is really doing my brain serious damage. At every turn I've had dodgy electrics to deal with - the rest of the bike hasn't been an issue at all apart from the electrics!!! After pulling the very rusty bike apart - who lets a bike stand under a tarp for years....???? - and putting it back together I just can't get a spark. At this point I have to say I am a Muppet with electrics. It just means nothing and appears to be some kind of magic rather than some physical entity. After initially getting no spark I did manage to put a voltmeter across the coils and got nothing so I binned them I also ordered some new plugs and caps from Rex's Speedshop. Feeling this was sorted I tried for a spark - nada. At that point I decided as the rest of the electrics were rubbish and if not failed would pretty soon fail anyway I replaced the CDI unit, Reg / Rectifier with new. Guess what - yup - no spark. Yes I had turned on the key! OK in that case it must be the ignition coil so I replaced that too. No it wasn't. I spoke to a helpful chap at Electrex World who suggested it could be dodgy connection and to hard wire (solder) the connection which I did but - hence the reason for me writing - it didn't help. Could it be to do with the pickup that sits on top of the rotor...??? There's a red & white wire that leads back to the CDI box which to my mind should be the supply to the unit & the rest of the ignition...??? Should there be a current there when I manually turn the rotor? If there should be a current and there isn't because wither the pickup is faulty (is that possible...???) or because the wire's broken how on earth am I going to repair that as the wire is covered in clear goo which I assume is to protect it from earthing out...
  3. Hello, guys! Found some problems with ignition on my GSX1100 and took off the coils to test. Got next numbers (please see photos) According to manual, kindly provided by agemax, the numbers are to be: Now 2 main newcomer's questions: 1. Did I proceed the test in the right way? 2. If I need to change the coils is it possible to replace them with other model ones (except DYNA)? Thanx, please don't kick too much)))))
  4. Guys, need some help with an old Bandit 1200, 96 P reg with 60K on the clock. Problem is no spark. Checked clutch and sidestand switches, motor does turn over well. Ignition switch is physically suspect, needs a wobble to switch it on, could it be the resistor? I get no Ohms across the black/white orange/red connectors. THanks Derek
  5. Hi All My 1981 GSX 1100 has developed a misfire. No1 seems to be the culprit and possibly No4. Misfire is consistent and I suspect the coils. Original coils New plugs Wiring cleaned and checked Any help appreciated... Cheers
  6. Hi All, Does anyone know which bikes have 3 ohm coils suitable for an aircooled 1100? Any help apprecited
  7. Hi All Have bought a coil that looks like a later model type (GSX F?). The low tension wires are black / black-white but the loom has a white / orange-white connection. Can anyone tell me which wire goes where? Secondly, the new coil has the plug wires one above the other, whilst the standard ones are side by side. Which one is which? Any help appreciated...
