Strobing the ignition

It will be scribed with a scapel and white painted . And a port cut into the outer case for future use . Looks like I have to make a disc the hard way . Wouldn't it be nice if the stators came with markings already. 

Hi Michael, could do , but the stator had to be shimmed to fit the 1/4 studs ( holes are now bigger ) and the cable exit re sealed , and I want the stator to be permanently marked for future tuning so a bit pointless ,easier  to stick a paper disc on the rotor and transfer marks ,TDC, retarded , and full advance to stator . Should also show up any variation on cylinders from 18d2 . And if a smooth action through the range . Strangely the bike is quick but fussy , all will be revealed . 

Found the cause of the issues. the 18d2 has too much axial play allowing the rotor arm to impact the cap segments .. Will be shimmed back to fit.

Hi Alan,  something about the wasted spark offends my sensibilities, dont like waste !  Also the fact that one plug works backwards . The Atlas has this and persists in wearing out one plug . a coincidence ??.

Still not clear how the timing got so far out .  Rotor clouting the cap turned the body ? Was clamped up tight . A mystery , how did it still perform so well?. A clue that all was not well was it never kicked back and started with a half hearted kick. Should burn rubber when right.And bite me!.

Hi Tony. ,on advice we purchased a double ended coil.  Probably go back to twins.Trying to fiddle on a new chain,without much luck, thinks its all going to come off.Dissy had about 1/8"of an inch end float ,  Pattern (not orriginal!) dissy caps are less forgiving ,made differently inside.
