A friend of mine needs a set of coils for a '79 GL1000.Does anyone
know if coils from a GL1100 will work on his bike? Thanks for your
input.

Probably, 1100s have electronic ignition but pretty sure they will work.
Thanks Dave, I will pass on the info.

When I installed an electronic ignition on my gl1000, I had to change the ballast.
I wonder which ballast you should use with the 1100 coils?

You can use 1100 coils on a 1000. You will have to do a little fabrication to mount them, but you get replaceable wires out of the deal.
