    xs 850 have firing order?

    Ignoring the red with white stripe wire going to each coil. What's the second color going to #1,2,3? They will be that top row. Grey, orange, or black . I amoving the coils around trying to guess the order.

    xs 850 have firing order?

    looking all over for a good picture or diagram that shows the order of the coils in relation to the 6 pin unit that seems to control them. Did engine swap and didn't do a good job of remembering. I read that a 650 has no order so wondering if its the same for the 850?

    Wanted - I'm looking for a xs850 engine

    Will buy and pay for shipping USA. Only catch is you gotta know the compression values. Or know it works very well. Would like it with the carb. Thank you. If you know someone with one let me know. What I see on eBay is hit or miss.

    Is this what you would call the face? Left side or right side is number 1? And like stamped near the exhaust?

    I have a xs850 with bad compression. And came across this one for sale but they don't know if it's 8 or 750 Would a 750 fit right in and match the attachment points and drive shaft?
