hello magneto, goodbye battery...

not just front fairing he was working on...

 shinya wanted to try magneto

次回はマグニートでいってみよう！


didn't has to be this long...

こんなに長い必要があるのか？
先日メッヒコスワップミートで見つけた工具、
早速試してみたくなっちゃったのでしょう。

magneto on

 and he could get rid of these...

こんだけ分軽量化できる・・・あんまり関係ないか。

    cool!!! i'm putting an old Joe Hunt magneto on my dual carb knucklehead for the same reason. i won't use a battery, and it will be kick start only. i just finished replacing the points, condensor, etc in it. hopefully, i'll be using it to start my bike in the next 3 months!

    nice Kimura San!!!

    イングリッシュで云うと
    マグニートなんだね。

    I have gotten to like the damn things.

    The weight savings has to be worth another couple mph!

    t: shinya is going to keep that heavy exhaust, though :)

    Heavy or not can't get rid of the caddy exhaust!
