Orders pouring in for a magneto drive gear assembly no one has seen yet. It is like announcing a new Ferrari model: order book full and only the colour is known.

Yes, it just goes to show that this is something that all the British makers should have fitted as standard back in the day! They would still be in business now if this and other sensible stuff had been followed through.

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

That sounds great Ian. Sign me up for one.

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

I fully agree, Keith.
Makes me curious how the system works....

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Sit back and relax chaps..There is an 8 week lead time on the production of the batch of gears, so it will be late July before everything is completed...

I've ordered 25 gears etc. initially and when completed 12 of those units are provisionally accounted for as of today...

These are the people who have responded on this post AFTER I posted the price and a few who have contacted me off forum already..

If you are not one of those people and want to go on the list for one of the remainder please also contact me off forum...Ian

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Belay that..I've just had an e mail from John Edwards in the U.S who has taken the last one...

I'll post here again as soon as things are coming together...Ian

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Ian,
Is there already something known about the 'rolling out' of this contraption
My M20 is anxiously waiting for this last bit to arrive

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Hi Hans...The various parts are being manufactured at the moment..

Production of the gears will take approx. 8 weeks so everything will probably be timed around that..

I'll post periodically as things progress...Ian

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

the genuine "Wright" product will always be the best and no right-thinking M20 owner would dare buy a mere copy when the real thing is available and well-priced.

Maybe "bundle it" with a rear stand?

Hi Ian
Don't know if you got my E-Mail from 28 May but I am definitely interested in two of any new Batch you get made up.

I was away for a few days and missed the first lot after the price was announced.

That's your problem Ian! You should be timing it in 'Degrees' not the 'Calendar'

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Hi Ian
Any news on how these are progressing?

I seem to have acquired yet another bike which would benefit from one (or at least my tenuous grip on sanity would be helped by the acquisition thereof).

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Greetings Mr. Wright,

Just checking for any news on the progress of your modified magneto timing mechanism.

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Hi Mr. Wright

Are you still selling this product and do you have stock?

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

I have to confess this hasn't progressed beyond a working prototype and the production of half the component parts including the drive gears...

I suppose as I have the best part of £1000 tied up in the project I should pull my finger out and get on with it...

Too many projects and not enough time is the problem I'm afraid.... ..Ian

email (option): ian@wright52.plus.com

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

Just to confirm that, if you do manage to extract the digit, I am still very interested in a couple.

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

I would be interested in one if any available.

Re: Accurate BSA ignition timing made easy ...

It sounds like something that is on my 1929 AJS. The magneto gear can be adjusted without touching the taper on the end of the magneto. You loosen the nut, move the gear and tighten the nut. The magneto gear can't move when you tighten the nut as there is a pin locating it to the part on the magneto taper. The holes in the gear for the pin are not evenly spaced so you have lots of adjustment. It also allows you to check the timing without having to tighten the nut.

As this costs more than a regular gear, it's probably why later bikes don't have this feature.
