arleybeer40:
I just cheked there websites. It shows they still make them for a K5

The Flyin Hawaiian:
Ive never had a problem with E Line. Ive been dealing with them for years and they have been great. I even had a problem with a YZ426 coil that was machined wrong and they overnighted a new one to me and paid the shipping. Ive had 4 or 5 bikes with their coils and they have been the most reliable lighting systems Ive ever had. I had an Electrex coil on my 426 and had nothing but problems with it. What problems did you have with them?

The Flyin Hawaiian:
Anybody try Baja Designs?

BDI:
I had to send my coil back because the mag rubbed the stator this caused the coil to short and It stoped putting out the power It should. I had to argue with E-lines tech who kept telling me that the coil tested good with his ohm meter he couldn't grasp the concept that If there was continuity between the power wires coming out of the coil and the aluminum case that housed the coil  It has a internal short. After they had It for a month and talking to every tech they have and trying to explain that continuity between the power wires and ground (A.K.A. the case) was bad I had to get pissed off and tell them to stick a new coil In It regardless of what they thought. Funny thing when I got the coil back It did not have continuity between the power wires and the case anymore and It was back to putting out the power It should after I ordered a new magnetic puck from baja Designes because e-line turned mine down on a lathe to make sure It would not rub again even though I asked them not to do that and explained That It rubbed because my crank was out of true.

The Flyin Hawaiian:
Wow, Im really surprised at how they treated you! They have always been very helpful and profesional with me on the phone. Maybe you caught someone on a bad day, thats still no excuse to treat you like they did.
