Spark on my GS300L

[Kitten Tooth]

Well, I finally found me a signal generator for my bike. Before i buy it though, i was wondering, couldn't i just bend that plate on the signal generator assembly so that those two contacts were closer to that rotor that spins in between? That way every time that the rotor spun around and passed, if those contacts were closer it would have a WAY better chance of making a connection. Don't worry, i know that the rotor is not supposed to touch the contacts. But, would making this mod to the signal generator mess up the timing or anything?

Thanks guys,

It won't do anything to the timing but it may weaken the signal strength...

I probably makes sense to set the distance exactly as the manual says to, the folks who came up with that specification probably understand how it works and everything.

I'll look at a manual and see what the distance should be
Thanks
