ditch the electronic ignition and go back to points a lot simpler

ditto the standard carb fit a mikuni or an s&s and it should run bloody well

re the electrics replace the black box with an earlier moving coil type regulator, they are a lot more reliable

I got bigger jets for my standard carb - took a bit of experimenting but worked great.
Also fitted a front sprocket that was one tooth bigger, would have liked to have fitted a smaller rear sprocket but couldn't get one at the time, still it did give it longer legs.

Contact Dave Glover at HDRS down in Mataura for bits & bobs, gives good service.

Or High Country Motorcycles at Fairlie.
