Hi Guys,
i rarely comment on other peoples efforts to make parts for triples, but i feel i must bring this to your attention.
POWER DYNAMO IGNITION KITS
http://www.powerdynamo.biz/eng/systems/ ... 63main.htm
BEWARE!!...these ignitions are rubbish. they look and feel fantastic. well engineered, decent fit, seems to be an answer to all your ignition problems, but they just dont work well. I bought one for my baby h2 which now has a 500 engine in. It starts and ticks over perfect ,but anything more than 1/4 throttle and the spark breaks down and misfires. it will not run over 5000 rpm at all. it will rev up in neutral but under load it just breaks down. They even admit this on their own website
http://www.powerdynamo.biz/eng/kb/triples.htmthe problem is ,that like the boyer bransden ignition, it fires all 3 coils every time, and it just cannot recharge the coils fast enough. in essence at 6000 rpm each coil is trying to run at 18000 rpm. it just cant handle it.
i proved this by taking their own advice and reducing the plug gap to a ridiculous 0.3mm gap and it immediately ran loads better. the down side of this in a 2 stroke is that the plugs foul twice as easily, mine fouled within 10 minutes.
now i would normally take this on the chin and chalk it up to experience, but i have just had a phone call from a customer asking for my advice. his bike has been running perfectly with my pipes for a couple of years. he has just fitted one of these ignitions to his H1D and experienced the exact same problems that i have.
My advice was to put the stock stator back on and buy an all in one box from Jim at Lakeland, which is exactly the route i am taking with my baby H2.
i have used Jims stuff for years and NEVER had so much as a fouled plug.
i know a lot of you are thinking, just go back to stock, but some owners get befuddled with the stock boxes, we have all been there...including me!
happy tripling
Higgs out.
