They look like red Dyna Coils. Are they any different?  

Maybe Chris brought the design in-house?

I have orderd some for a friend's bike I'm working on. I'll get feedback once they have been tested.

I'm confident that they will be good quality and they are a lower price than the Dynas. They are a design much more compact than the Dyna coils I got from Chris previously. They appear to bolt on directly rather than through a bracket kit and will fit better in the confined area behind the air box.

They are what Chris sells now and I get the impression he sourced them himself to get a quality and price outcome he was happy with.

Not belts, coils.

Yeah they do.  Pretty sure he's found an overseas (not that that's a bad thing) manufacture to supply them per his specs.

Did not see those before.  Look very nice.  I am curious to hear what people think.

i will be ordering these in february i believe for a 900 in the garage. and one of them there fancy shorai batteries.

Just fitted some to a '98 M900S.
The owner is very pleased with how much smoother and crisper the bike runs at lower revs. The idle is crisper and more even.
I was impressed with how they bolt straight onto the stock coil posts, and how compact and light they are compared to Dyna coils for similar performance.

I just installed some, easiest mod I've done by far.  Sadly, no notes on performance yet as the bike is in a million pieces for a variety of winter projects.

I just installed a set on my '95 M-900. I expected a big difference, as the coil and wires that were replaced had over 80k miles on them, and there was. Throttle response is much quicker, the bike felt like I was kicking it in the butt when I opened the throttle. Easy install, the only difference in the coils from stock is the new ones have the electrical connectors on the opposite side of the coil.

Well crap.  I must have drawn the short straw 'cause they make my bike run like poo.

Reckon I'll need to call Chris and see what he thinks.

Please expain?

Have you checked and re-checked your wiring, usually its something you moved or disconnected/reconnected, though component failure does happen every now and then its usually rare.

I am very interested in how you go, I have 80,000 kays up on my bike and it needs a freshen up.

Yeah, they're hooked up correctly.  When they're installed, the bike runs great for about 10 minutes, then starts randomly dropping cylinders at idle.  Swap out to the old coils and the problem goes away completely.

I've been doing this long enough that I agree with you; it's rare that a brand new component is NFG straight from the box, but in this case all signs are pointing to yes.
