    rec-ignition?

    In the process of researching some "no start" issues on an 80 750L, I came across this interesting ignitor box replacement:




    Has anyone heard of or tried this unit out? Perhaps some Aussie members know of this?



    PS: I am not yet looking for trouble shooting help on the "no start" as I have some steps to go through before I start looking at or blaming the ignition system. I am just interested in information about this ignitor replacement for future information.

    That's very interesting- should offer ideas to the guys attempting ignitor repair. Thanks

      Unfortunately it seems if the input for the pickups will not work with the OEM pickups.....

      Ignitech may have one that will work at:



      They even have nice programmable one that allows you to set it up from your own PC!

        Matchless,

        Do you know what trigger method our ignitions use?

        From the website:
        " The are two different variants of Rec-Ignition. One is for digital inputs like points or Dyna hall effect inputs. The are characterized by the inputs being pulled to ground and then released for the spark. The 2nd is for analogue type inputs - pickup coils or reluctors. The same circuit board is used for each but each is populated with components differently."

        I would have thought our stock input would have been simple pickup coils.

          Our bikes use the reluctor type pickups, but the link you gave is for the hall affect and points type. For some reason I could not find the rec-ignition on his website, just the Ducati ECU's he builds.....
          I would like to see more details on the analogue type you are referring to...

            This must be a side project for this guy as the webpages related to it aren't laid out very well. I got that information from the kit assembly instructions link. Looks like it can be built for various inputs:

              Yes I see now. Maybe you should send him a mail and see what he says. Getting a kit like that would be quite reasonable and easy to assemble, especially easy to repair.
              If you do, come back to this thread please and share as other will also be interested.
              Thanks
