New Ignition HT Coil Yamaha XV535 Virago 88-04

3.4 to 4.2 Ohms Primary

10.5Kohms secondary

80mm bolt holes

Operation: When the ignition switch is turned on, current flows through the primary coil, creating a magnetic field around the iron core. When this current is suddenly interrupted (by opening the circuit), the magnetic field collapses rapidly. This rapid change in magnetic field induces a high voltage in the secondary coil.

Spark Generation: The high voltage generated in the secondary coil is then directed to the spark plugs through spark plug wires. When the high voltage reaches the spark plug gap, it ionizes the air, creating a spark that ignites the fuel-air mixture in the engine's cylinder.

Types: Motorcycle coils can come in different designs, including single-lead or dual-lead configurations. Single-lead coils have one primary circuit connection, while dual-lead coils have two.

Maintenance: Ignition coils are generally reliable, but they can fail due to age, heat, or electrical issues. Common symptoms of a failing coil include misfiring, rough idling, and difficulty starting the motorcycle.

If you need to replace a faulty motorcycle coil, it's essential to ensure compatibility with your motorcycle's make and model. Always use quality replacement parts from reputable manufacturers or OEM suppliers to ensure proper functioning and longevity of the component. Additionally, following the manufacturer's maintenance schedule and keeping the ignition system clean and in good condition will help ensure the motorcycle's reliable performance.
