Ignition Coil | Honda CB350 / CB360 / CB450 / CB500T

Weak or intermittent spark is one of the most common reasons a vintage Honda twin won’t start or runs poorly. If you’ve already replaced your points and condensers and still have ignition trouble, the coils are the next thing to check. These reproduction ignition coils are a direct fit for your Honda CB350, CL350, SL350, CB360, CL360, CJ360, CB450, CL450, and CB500T — they mount to the stock bracket with no modification.

Why You Need This

Over time, ignition coils deteriorate internally and produce weak spark — a dull white or yellow arc instead of the bright blue-purple you need for reliable combustion. A failing coil can cause hard starting, misfires at higher RPMs, or one dead cylinder. Because these coils contain thousands of turns of fine copper wire wound on an iron core, there’s no way to repair them — replacement is the only fix.

Each coil includes a permanently attached spark plug wire. Coils are sold individually — you need two per bike.

Note: The CB450 K0 “Black Bomber” (1965–1968) uses different wiring from all later models. The ignition circuit logic is the same, but verify your wire routing against your model’s wiring diagram before installation.

Note: The “regular” spark plug boot (SKU 3009) can work on the CB450/CB500T but it will be snug. We recommend the angled spark plug boot for a better fit on those models.

Installation

Difficulty: Beginner

Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 10mm wrench

  1. Disconnect the negative terminal on your battery before starting.
  2. Unplug the points wire and the 12V power wire from the old coil.
  3. Remove the coil mounting bolt and slide the old coil off the bracket.
  4. Mount the new coil on the stock bracket and tighten the mounting bolt.
  5. Reconnect the wiring: the left coil connects to the yellow wire (left points) and the right coil connects to the blue wire (right points). The black wire is 12V positive. Make sure all connections are clean and corrosion-free.
  6. Thread the spark plug boot securely into the end of the spark plug wire — make sure the threaded connector goes straight into the wire core, not off to the side into the insulation.
  7. Reconnect the battery and set your ignition timing.

Left coil = yellow wire = left points = left cylinder. Right coil = blue wire = right points = right cylinder. If the wiring is crossed, the cylinders fire at the wrong time and the bike won’t start.
