Cobby Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Been looking on the dynatek website and although they don't have a specific system for a gsx750es is there any reason why I couldn't use the dyna s system? Quote Link to comment

arnout Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 The Dyna S system was designed to replace just the breaker points as used on older bikes (like the GS-series). Because the system still makes use of the stock mechanical advancer this Dyna S system does not fit on newer bikes that were never fitted with such a mechanical device on the crank. The advance on those bikes is electronically controlled via a black cdi box somewhere. In theory it should be possible to fit a mechanical advance unit onto a 750ES and so being able to use a Dyna S thing, but this would be rather a step backwards compared to the technologically more advanced stock ignition system.

Cobby Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 So would there be any benefits in changing the system at all, not necessarily for a dyna s system but for anything different? Quote Link to comment

No. If the stock ES ignition is in good working condition there's little reason for replacing it. On tuned high performance bikes it makes sense to run an aftermarket ignition system as these allow easy timing alterations etc. They may also deliver fatter sparks (esp. at higher revs). Useful or even critical on tweaked engines that are pushed to the limit, but not so on stock street bikes already fitted with an electronically controlled ignition system. Quote Link to comment

Reinhoud Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 No, it would make finding one easier.. Quote Link to comment

So it would be beneficial if I'm running aftermarket exhaust and pod filters Quote Link to comment
