    unfortunately its worth about £800 to £1k tops there just isn't the love out there for them.
  3. if the gear moves, its worn. I had to drill the hole larger to accept the pin and drive it in. being spilt it will deform to fill in the wear.
  4. please read my post above re:pins

    ok I managed to get a spark from the dynas off the bike taking out the 5kohm cap and resistor spark plugs and using a nail instead I've earthed the TCI in the right places to the frame and confirmed its earthed. basically the TCI is a posh earth switch controlled by a chip to change the frequency of the switching.

    its directly with the battery, new wires. 12.6 volts. how long do you have to hold them to charge? and do I collapse the feed or neg?

    sounds like clutch slipping then. hope you didn't put car oil in carbs will be gunged up so won't help in a smooth tickover

    TCI def work, couldn't get the coils to spark manually, but couldn't with any of them (4 sets) even the originals which do work. There is no power to the pulse pickups, they generate their own power no immobilisers fitted, got an led to light on the pulse coils So what am I doing wrong if I can't get them to spark manually as 4 sets wont work and they are wired directly to the battery

    its because there is no fluid, the seals have a hard time pulling it through. most suck it through via the caliper and once you get a fair amount of fluid going, it should operate as it should. Took me 2 days on my twin caliper setup to do mine. do a search on the forum as its a common issue.

    well that didn't work wonder if 0.4 to 0.5 AC volts from trigger coil is correct?

    cheeky fecker! I had a piranha on the tracker but it went down on 1 pot. I did get one made which used the points as a trigger and was really reliable. I got it from Germany but he has stopped building them. I have got plans to build your own if your up for it? try Pamco Pete on mikeXS http://www.mikesxs.net/product/14-0999.html

    hope your not puling in the clutch to kick the bike over, otherwise it wont connect to the crank.

    there was a site where that sold M/C seal kits by size. lost the link in moving computers though so you'll have to trawl google. It was an artisan web page not from a main stream site.
