  17. how many slots are in the side of the flywheel?, the 1 o clock posn would be for the early 7 wire cdi 3 coil stator and 2 slot flywheel rotor the 11 o clock posn would be for the later 6 wire cdi 2 coil stator and 4 slot flywheel but this applies to the UK bikes, not the DT175E...not sure what they had but at that stage I think they were like our early version
