[QUOTE="Simon Dinsdale, post: 176709, member: 58"] Chris On my Rapide I run a twin points ignition system that I made 30 years ago where its just a machined housing with basic shaft with a cam on one end operating the two sets of points and the other end has the standard ATD from a magneto and in 30 years I have had no problem with the opertation of the ATD apart from the original ATD was a bit worn and so had too much advance. So 15 years ago I replaced it with a new ATD unit from Roy Price who was still making them at the time. I have never put a strobe on the bike though so have never observed what the timing is doing advance curve wise, assuming its even a curve. Simon [/QUOTE]
