So this AM to get the oldest work horse in the stable going, I lowered it from the rafters and dusted it off. I have not started this thing for over a year, but it was getting a bit long in the tooth last time I rode it. Spark was feeble and honestly I thought the magneto had crapped out. I tried to get some spark, but it seemed weak and not consistent at all.

I decided I would put an HD CDI on it and get an installed on a "typical" bike picture for our website.



I repeated the same spark test. HOLY SMOKES. NOW THAT IS SPARK!

Used the same plug, just put some fresh fuel mix in and purged the carb out. It started instantly (NEVER did that) and really goes. Too cold and wet to go for a land speed record, but the old girl pulls like it's 2008 all over again!

I just gota e-mail from one my customers stating that the LIGHTNING KIT stop his motor from four stroking. He was just happy. So I gave him some carb tuning tips as well.
