plug caps and coils
I always read it as without caps. caps come in two flavours 5 ohms and 10 ihms. the 10 ohms give a weaker but longer spark, with the 5k strong but short, depends on the bike specs really.

Mods and Rockers
I caught it and was very good. Liked the portrayal from the media it was an all out battle, so then the kids obliged them in the end.

Mods and Rockers
They must use archive footage (obviously) this is what's said online Series 14 Episode 1 of 7 Duration: 1 hour A trip back to the days when 'style wars' were just that - violent confrontations about the clothes you wore. Spring 2014 marks the 50th anniversary of the bank holiday 'battles of the beaches', when hundreds of mods and rockers flocked to seaside resorts on scooters and motorbikes in search of thrills and spills. Timeshift tells the story of how this led to violence, arrests and widespread concern about the state of British youth. But mods and rockers had more in common than was first obvious - they were the first generation of baby boomers to reach their teenage years at a time when greater prosperity and wider freedoms were transforming what it meant to be young.

Velocette owners Club open day
wasn't too sure this was on today,so took a chance as I was only a few miles from Astley Green Colliery. Turns out that there were a few Velos there and other bikes. Had a mooch round and I would recommend a visit if you have never been before this huge beast was in a shed at the back of the grounds, Eccles built Gardner engine and to top it off, I got 2nd prize for non-Velo bike(didn't even know there was any) nice Birthday pressie

Fz600 Gulf
back on this, thinking the blue/yellow wire maybe a feed rather than an earth to the TCI? have posted on the XJ forum and see what they say. the Yellow/blue is from the safety cutout switches (neutral and sidestand) but goes into the diode pack where it gets all skewed and I can't tell what does what with all the diodes and relays etc inside
