The ignition system incorporates the power supplies (storage battery and alternator), low
voltage wiring, main switch, ignition coil, contactless timing sensor, electronic amplifier,
high voltage wires and spark plugs. See Figure 8.1-1.
The contactless ignition system (BC3) with electronic ignition timing is interchangeable
with the mechanical points/coil system which is no longer available from the factory. All
current models use the BC3 ignition.
The system consists of a moving coil pickup and the electronic amplifier module located
on the engine.
Ignition timing
Since ignition timing is accomplished by a magnetic pickup, timing should not require
adjustment in the normal course of operation. However, if timing is disturbed by repair
work, it should be checked. Timing is adjusted by moving the position of the pickup coil,
as follows:
1. Using either the kick starter or rotating the rear wheel in 4
th
gear, match the first
arrow (with the point) on the flywheel with mark M3 on the engine crankcase.
2. Slacken the screws fastening the pickup base and turn it so that the mark on the
pickup rotor matches mark "0" on the pickup base, then tighten the screws.
3. Check the gap between the rotor and the moving coil pickup, and adjust if required.
Pickup coil gap should be .008 to .012 in. / 0.2 to 0.3 mm.
Note: If the rotor mark is not visible after matching the flywheel mark with M3, the crank
is on the wrong stroke. Turn the crank through 1 revolution and check the pickup rotor
again.
Automatic timing advance can be checked with an inductive strobe light, after making
suitable marks on the flywheel:

15 to 18 degrees
Ignition coil
The 135.AC.B ignition coil has dual high voltage terminals, one for each spark plug. The
coil fires both plugs simultaneously every revolution, on the compression stroke and on
the exhaust stroke of each cylinder.
To remove the ignition coil, remove the two bolts fastening the coil to the frame just
under the fuel tank.
Reinstall the ignition coil by reversing the sequence of the operations.
