  • ignition coils

    I need to know what ignition coils from other yamaha bikes will definitely work on my xs1100 special. I need the coil for cylinders 2 and 3.

    Not yamaha but the Honda VF1000 coils are an upgrade, the UK site has some info.

        ... and a gooood upgrade at that. Made a helluva difference to mine. Starts first time, every time. No missing at idle, good continuous spark at revs, stronger running engine. Every bit as good as a high voltage (and considerable more expensive) coil upgrade IMO.

          Very good to hear Brian, as I have a set in the garage now. Waiting for me to decide how I want to wire them in.
