All of the NOS coils are available from Suzuki in the US.
Likely to also be available in the UK.
BAS (Bike Acquisition Syndrome) - too many bikes but have room for more

Suzuki:
GT750 2x75
GT550 72 & 75
GT380 72
T500 69 project & 73 project
T350 69 & 71

Word of advice, if you replace any of the coils, after you solder the wires on epoxy coat the wires as they lay against the coil and completely cover the solder joint where connected to the tabs on the coils. If you do not epoxy them, they WILL vibrate off. It is NOT fun pushing a bike home, their weight increases the further you push......
