Beancans....aaaaaaaah.
I've not had an ignition problem in 18 years .
Well, except for when my left coil fell off its mount.
Oh yeah, I lost my key once.

Actually I've had 18 years of trouble free motorcycling on my RS.
It's never been a trouble to fix ALL those things I've fixed. Ooh, and broke.


What a pointless post. Sorry Garnet.

There's no way I'll ever regain the valuable seconds I wasted reading this. I feel robbed...

"So now it's gone, spares aren't available and theres no one to talk to about it. Great...! I've been reading about teething problems with The motorad Electric system over in ADV Rider, so is the Boyer the only viable and affordable alternative?

You know, I've been thinking about dual plugging my bike and if I do, as much as I'd hate doing it, I might go back to points.
I hate points."

The bean can doesn't apply to my bike so I have not looked into it.
Omega still has parts. I just received mine about 1 month ago.

If you're considering points and the original advance mechanism, then why not go with the old reliable Dyna III?
