Just started the nuts and bolts rebuild of my Z1-B (it's been in pieces since 1977). Have decided to stay with conventional ignition for the moment but am replacing bits like points, condensers and auto-advance springs etc. Z-Power have both pattern and genuine points but the price difference is £16 against £56 for the set of 2. Anyone had experience of the pattern sets. Are they any good, and is there a £40 advantage by going for the genuine article? Any advice very much appreciated.

Ive had electronic ignition put on mine in the end, its a 1977 z1000a1 owned since 1979 and never had an issue till now and then ended up with a full engine re build so at that point the elec ignition was put on.
