As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Ive decided to change my complete ignition including the coils on my 1981 GS550T bike. Ive noticed that the spark im getting is weak. Orange to white in colour and very little blue! So i figured with the age of the bike a new ignition should give me a few more years from the bike. Could anyone look at the link below and llet me know if this is a good kit for the money as it comes with miniture high powered coils including which means i get a complete new ignition? I know there is a dyno equivalent but does the kit come with coils also?

The breakerless Dyna will prolly allow you to save replacing the coils. The whole point of the breakerless ignition is quicker release of the circuit, more time charging the coils.
 
Haven't heard anything bad about the Brandsden ignition. Not sure this is meaningful though. The Dyna S ignition with coils costs about the same amount of money. Not sure which is better.

If you buy it please report back with your experiences.

That make of ignition is pretty standard for old Triumphs and Nortons, and has a good record of service on those paint-shakers.
