Those of you that have helped me in the past will know i have been reluctant to move with the times with my restore but I'm starting to question some of my desertions.
So should i stick with the traditional points or should i for all the right reasons invest in electronic ignition?
If yes then what is the must have product?

is that a straight swap out of points. All my coils and leads are new.

Re: Points or Electronic ignition
The only real benefit of changing to electronic ignition is lack of maintenance needed.
If you decide to change, Dyna S would be my recommendation too. Very straightforward to swap out and will work with standard coils.

Re: Points or Electronic ignition
there is even a 'how to ' on the site. very easy to do. Just swap points plate, connect and time up.

Re: Points or Electronic ignition
For Dyna s - Main advantage - as has been said - is lack of maintenance.
Main disadvantage is if it goes wrong - employing a 'get you home' fix will not be easy.
Having said that - Both the original points and the Dyna s are known to be fairly trouble free.
I have dyna coils and the original points system on both my bikes & never had an issue in this area.
pays your money & takes your choice !

Re: Points or Electronic ignition
Run oem points and condensors on all my bikes without trouble or excessive maintenance. They worked fine then and continue to do so now.
