About 4 years ago I've build in this electronic ignition on a WL and it works fine.
If the accurate ignition timing is done once, you never have to care about.
No recheck of the circuit breaker point gap or other maintanance of the ignition timing.
Since accurate ignition timing is the first essential to good engine performance, you can be sure that is not the ignition timing when you have trouble with your engine performance. That is the advantage - not more, not less

Martin, I went to your website through the club profile. What a horrible tragedy for your speedometer business. For those who haven't looked at Martin's website, he posted pictures of the aftermath of a devastating fire. I hope you get your shop back together soon Martin.

I have run this system in two of my bikes and have been very pleased with the results.

Do you use a stock coil or do you (or can you) use a coil with a different impedance/more spark?

[Ohio-Rider]

Stock coil works fine. I've heard folks say you can goes with a stronger coil and a wider plug gap after installing the unit. I never did either of those things and it has been working great for four years for me.

I put one on my VL with stock coil and it hasn't missed a beat. Seems to be a great product and he stands behind it.
