I agree that the loud music is a distraction. Also it would have been helpful if you had explained what you were doing when you were setting the stator position. It looked like you were measuring something with a caliper? Is that how you set the timing?

[@mantiSshymn]

I cant help but say the look on your face when it kicks over is priceless! the look on all our faces when we kick over a bike after any rebuild is the same. thanks for sharing your vid. I have a few questions for you if you have time to answer me. Regarding a full rebuild/restore of a 77 T350. Thanks again.

Hola, yo tengo una Bultaco Sherpa 250, que marca y modelo es esa pieza, quiero cambiar a encendido electrónico

I used a Powerdynamo kit on my M87 Pursang 350. One thing that is not clear it its instructions was whether to use a resistor plug or the gap. Depends on the plug boot that comes in the kit. Plain rubber boot-resistor plug needed. Plastic or metal resistor boot-non resistor plug needed. I found this out after much fiddling, and then reading their trouble shooting tips online. It makes a difference in how it re-cranks with some heat in the engine. Plug gap for me ended up at .022, just a bit wider than stock setting. Just my 2 cents..

WTF?

[@davidkeeton6716]

​@@davisworth5114I know what WTF means. What do you mean?

[@lorenzocesana3948]

Where i can find flywheel extractor??

[@elituko]

If you buy a Powerdynamo kit, they sell a flywheel puller as well. You can buy those pullers by size from Hughs Bultaco or Speed and Sport or In Motion Trials or look on Amazon.

Good video Horrible noise / music .

[@davisworth5114]

Really annoying not showing what you were doing or how you were setting the unit up, I didn't hear you say the name of the new unit, and the music was TERRIBLE!.

[@ThePaultap]

A good video spoilt by stupidly loud pointless music!
