Check a parts fiche at partshark or bikebandit or similar... you'll see it.
The easiest fix for that is to fit a Dyna S ignition. www.z1enterprises.com is a good place to get one...

Coils yes are compatible, ignitor no. The ignitor is replaced by the Dyna S, which wires right to the coils. The ignitor is built-in to the sig gen, so to speak.
I did use the left-over ignitor harness to grab the switched +12V for the coil relay mod, though

I was wondering how it worked, now it makes sense. Thanks Mike. I am going to follow your lead and get the Dyna S and do the coil mod. I plan on having the bike awhile so it will be worth the money.

If you think that will help. ATV Galaxy just re-posted on ebay but it's up about $5. Still the best price around methinks. My old ignitor would work great until it got hot. Sounds familiar.
One mod you will have to make if you install the DS3-2; the included spacer is too thick. This seems to be true of a lot of DS installations on the EI bikes. The included rotor is too short and can slip off the mechanical advance, so they include a spacer. But the spacer is too thick and when you tighten down the crank bolt the rotor can't advance. I sanded down the top of my rotor about 0.6mm. You could also try finding a thinner washer as a spacer. Just so it can turn freely and not lift off the mechanical advance.
