[QUOTE="Oldhaven, post: 54401, member: 2879"] Hi Glen, I notice you have mentioned this setup here before. It sure sounds simple and reliable. Would you mind posting a picture of your system (if it does not require disassembly)? Is it positioned at magneto location or on timing cover? The Dolphin system Bill used mounted on the timing cover. What type Lucas points did you use? I don't think making a new points plate would be too difficult. Does it have the later Commando Lucas mechanical centrifugal advance Chris mentions with straight shaft driven with a Vincent mag pinion? I did find a post from you on another forum: ------- From the 850Mk111 parts book- Contact breaker plate assembly- Norton part number 06-8110, Maker's or Superceded Part No. 54425160 Points set " " " 99-1266 "" " 60600271 Eccentric screw " " 99-0769 " " 54419220 Autoadvance Mechanism " " 06-8047 " " 54426429 Spring set " " 06-8046 " " 54412229 I don't have info for the earlier bikes but I believe the above numbers are also good for any 1973 and up Commando --------- Thanks Glen Bill, and Chris, I am always interested in learning something, and this forum is great for that.
