      the condensers are for points ignition
      The black flex springs are for the points.

      clean OEM all the way. Looks fresh from the factory

                          I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
