how long lord, how long... one year of kicking misery...

Finally she will not start, just the odd pop and bang.
That was two weeks ago and I'd had enough.
So today I fitted my old points plate with new points and condenser
and my 17 year old Accel super coil
and junked that Ultima Piece of Shit 
electronic Igniton
She started so easily, a pleasure to kick, she wanted to start.
thats one year of misery...

actually mr anon. the factory supplied this bike with with the new fangled electronic ignition in 81 - which wasn't working when i bought it in 88' and I converted it to points, then back to the future and I think hmmm single fire ignition, sounds good........
