fitting banshee350 racing coils

[Deleted]

Fitted some banshee racing coils on my 350lc today, this is how i did it.
first of all i cleaned all the plastic coating from the frame to make a good earth.

then I made a bracket with 2 holes drilled at 40mm centres for the 2 coils

next i got a connector from an old loom

the loom only has one live and an earth so put the earth to the frame and daisy chained with connectors to feed the two coils

tank and seat back on and fired her up. sounds crisper, so went for a 20 mile ride, it accelerates faster and revs better from low down the rev range. Going on the nerdoc run tomorrow so full report after that, hope you liked my little story
mick and kaf ;D

well went on the nerdoc run and she ran as sweet as a nut ;D
as i say sounds crisper, and while other lc's went on reserve i was still on main tank. So seems like fuel consumption has improved too ;D ;D ;D

It did sound well mate crisper then before . I need to test them on a ypvs now then ill order in 40 sets . thats the min order but as they are a good modi think thjey are worth getting in.
thanks for testing them,.

[lcrider]

I bet one of them would work on a 125 dont you think .

[Norbo]

Im gowing to have to fit a set to my bike now its all legel and on the road .

[steve h]

Do you know the primary winding resistance of these coils Mick?

[fullresto]

Giday blokes, fellow RD nut from OZ here.I've found an after market banshee coil which ticks all the boxes, it's a single unit and has 2 replacable leads. You can check them out at www.legendmotorcycles.........

[Norbo]

They are a standard road made in china replacement coil not a racing coil.

bump for jonnyf2 ;D

[grunt33]

How expensive where the coils . Cheers Paul

i got them to test for norbo ;D
but then he robbed me at stafford so says i have paid for them now
norbo has now bought a load of them so give him a ring for how much. must say though they are very very good

[Norbo]

They are £45 a set . I have never tryed them but they should all so work on a 125 well 1 any way

yes

[Bertie Wooster]

Had to slightly trim my cover for better fitt

[russpuss]

Mine fitted ok with no trimming.

[Bertie Wooster]

Did it fit aswell as std coil

[russpuss]

Yes exactly the same, I bought the stainless fitting things from Norbo at the same time.

[antos]

Guys is the fitting kit needed on the 350 f2 please? Cheers

[Yogi]

You can make your own brackets but is it worth it

Fitting a pair on mine this week, but trying to fit them upright so they are closer together, not sure how much room there is under the tank. Tried a Dyna coil but that was too big.

Dyna miniature coils fit.

Yes bought one of them after seeing your posts, I bought a few of the bigger versions originally, but found out that they also fitted my KR1s so not so bad.

[dusty350]

You can also fit the Dyna coils upright by making a small "L" bracket each end;

I felt doing it this way means the HT leads have a better run down to the plugs. And tank clears it with no issues.

[rapidgaz]

Mine are all fitted and working. And no problem with room under the tank at all.
Will get a pic when I remove my tank yet again.

[dusty350]

Mine all fitted now and bike certainly seems "sharper" when revved. I used the brackets Norbo sells;

I had an old coil that I cut the wiring plug off. The orange from the plug was connected to one coil, and then another orange wire was linked from that across to the other coil. The black wire from the plug was run to earth on the rear coil bracket. Thanks to the guys on the forum that pointed me in the right direction.
