Recently bought a 82 XJ1100 pickup plate, rotor and TCI with hopes of trying to replace the ignition on my 80 XS1100 and do away with the flexing pickup coils wires.
According to the specs that I found the XJ1100 ignition coils should check out at 2.5 ohms of resistance on the primary side with a 10% variance being acceptable. The XS coils are 1.5 ohm so needless to say they won't work with the XJ setup.
My question is, where do I get 2.5 ohm coils other than finding used XJ coils? Will 3 ohm coils work? I'd like to use Honda CB750 coils or something similar so I can swap out the HT leads when needed. Any guidance on this would be appreciated!
