What is the replacement Accel coil part numbers for the 1980 KZ1300B2?
Accel part #’s are 140403 (2 coils) & 140403S (Single coil). The same coil for all year model KZ1300, Z1300, ZN1300, ZG1300 and Voyager 1300’s. All year 1300’s use the same Accel coil. On the older bikes (83′ KZ1300’s or older) with the original 1.5 ohm coils and ballast resistor, you simply pull the ballast off, toss it in the trash and install the coils without a ballast. On the newer year model bikes that came with 2.5 ohm coils and without the ballast, you simply mount the coils and ride. It’s that simple. I even have a page that shows you how at – accel.zn1300.com but here again, I do not recommend Accels at this time unless you can confirm that they do indeed measure 3.0 ohms when they’re hot.Measure them cold, then get them over some heat source and warm them up just like they would be cooking over a hot engine. Test again. If the ohm reading didn’t change more than .1 or maybe .2 ohms, then it should be OK to use them. I guess any coil may change a little bit when it’s hot. I’m
