Tri-Spark Classic Twin Secrets Revealed…..for your eyes only
We get asked all the time what makes
our Tri-Spark Classic Twin ignition (for British Twins and singles) so
different from the rest and I thought it was time to share that story with our customers and friends.
The problem we solved – when the engine is turning
slowly and erratically during kickstarting and idling – the rotation of the
crank can be difficult to predict – sparking at the wrong time can result in
painful kickback, hard starting and lumpy running.
The solution – we use 2 position sensors – one
dedicated for slow speed and one for normal running. By comparing the readings
from these 2 sensors we get a much more detailed picture of what the engine is
doing at low speed. Competitors can’t make this claim!
The result:
- A steadier idle
- Easier starting without
kickback – see testimonial from Brian Nicholls below
- Smooth running throughout the rev range
- Reduced power consumption and less heating of the coils
- LED indication of static
timing – extreme accuracy.
- Easy self-test - complete testing of the ignition system and coils without having
to jump on the kick starter!
- No black box – simple wiring, easy installation and originality maintained.
Hi Steve I have had some time now to enjoy riding the Guzzi after installing the Tri-Spark ignition. I really noticed the easier starting and idle performance when cold with a much more consistent idle and an engine that appears to have a whole new lease of life throughout the rev range. Thanks again for a great product, Cheers Graeme.
ReplyDeleteYou say,
ReplyDelete"2 position sensors – one dedicated for slow speed and one for normal running."
But, how can one sensor be for slow speed, and one for normal speed? Is one sensor designed to be more responsive at a slower rotor speed, and visa versa?
Any plans for an ignition system for the BMW R60/2...?
ReplyDeleteI have your ignition on my 70' Triumph Bonneville, and love it!!!
