The space \({\mathcal B}\) of \(C^ r\)-dynamical systems on an \(n\)-dimensional \(C^ r\)-manifold (\(n\geq 3\), \(r\geq 4\)) is considered. An equilibrium point of a dynamical system from \({\mathcal B}\) is a saddle-focus point if it is a saddle point and the nearest on the imaginary axis eigenvalues are only two, of the form \(a\pm ib\), \(a,b\neq 0\). To such a point a saddle- value \(\sigma\) is associated. In the space \(\mathcal B\) endowed with \(C^ 4\)-topology the subspace \({\mathcal B}^ 1\) is defined as the set of dynamical systems having an isolated saddle-focus equilibrium 0, with a 1 or 2-dimensional unstable manifold and a homoclinic trajectory \(\Gamma\) to 0. \({\mathcal B}^ 1_ s\), \({\mathcal B}^ 1_ u\) are open sets in \({\mathcal B}^ 1\) containing the dynamical systems having negative, respectively positive, saddle-value \(\sigma\). The following results are proved: 1. The subset of dynamical systems from \({\mathcal B}^ 1\) having nontrivial periodic motions is dense in \({\mathcal B}^ 1\). 2. The subset of dynamical systems from \({\mathcal B}^ 1_ s\) having a countable set of stable periodic orbits is dense in \({\mathcal B}^ s_ 1\). 3. For every system from \({\mathcal B}^ 1_ u\) there is a sufficiently small neighbourhood \(U\) in the space \({\mathcal B}\), such that no system from \(U\) has stable periodic motions in a sufficiently small neighbourhood \(\Gamma\cup\{0\}\). The last two results are used to describe the scenario of transition to spiral chaos.
