I believe the black box on my model is electronic advance Nippon Denso type. If I am to install the Dyna S, I need to put in a mech advance from another bike to take over.
Robinjo is correct. Your bike was manufactured with a mechanical advance unit. The Nippon Denso box you have does not have an electronic advance function. The mechanical advance is located beneath the ignition breaker plate.

hmmm, if thats the case then I am in the clear. I had a few people here say that since mine was an 81 it was electric advance via black box. I haven't had a chance to pull the signal unit off to make sure. Thats great, then the Dyna S should be a drop in ang go. I will confirm for all tonight.

Yup, thanks for saving me some cash. I just verified this morning and see the mechanical advance behind the signal plate. Thats great, so the Dyna "S" and Dyna DC1-1 coils should drop right in. I was going to go with the Dyna 2000, but I figured why go top end when its not needed. Maybe if I were to get an 1150 with big bore kit and turbo, it would be a good idea to spend ~$350 for just that. Thanks all, huge help.
