Just found out that it doesn't have to be a 1997
All years will do!
Code: 21119 1494
Or perhaps any suggestions on where to get the damn thing fixed??

If it has two ignition pickups like the GPZ500/400 - and I'm pretty sure it's the same motor continued - then an ignitor from a 400/600/750 four of the late 80's - early 90's using an ignition box with the same number of contacts in the plug will work for you.
the only differences are the rev limiter settings - the advance curve is pretty much the same for all of them.
The coil resistances are very close too so the four cylinder boxes will work on the twin.

Cheers guys, found one in his home town for much the same price as the above link !!
Item should be on it's way, but with new year there could be a bit of pacing going on over the next week or so ! Clint only has 5 weeks left to do the south Island in.
