My 77 gs550 was running great for 1200 miles after a new rotor , stator , rectifier regulator . It started to lose power. Then it would barely run and die immediately with the headlight on . Stator tested ok rectifier bad . New rectifier and still barely runs . I switched to dynatek ignition a few years ago and am thinking of reinstalling the points . I’m wondering if when the rectifier died it damaged the dynatek ignition? Very frustrating . Nice video
Hello man! I have the same problem on my gs550 and have to change my coils. Can you tell me (if you remember) which coils I should use? I would greatly appreciate it 🫡
@@pwillysbarn5574 @oleksandrartiushenko6852 I think he was asking about electronic ignition. I too am running the infamous "box" and losing spark above 2-3k rpm. I'm guessing you are the previous or older generation of gs and have a mechanical advance as well. Hope she's still running good. 👍
Check fuses.... not that they are not blown, but that they are making connection on BOTH sides! I had good fuses but they were not making contact on out put side to the connector... its usually something very simple but can be hard to find.
Just bought a 76, 550 super sport and a 79 Suzuki exactly like the one you have with the exact same problem. Thank you sir.

Do you use original igniter box, or did you find work around ?
It was not original. Previous owner had upgraded or replaced before me.

Just bought a 81 gs450 and can’t get it to crank. Anything you suggest?
