Hi is there anyone who can bench test a complete ignition system,I thought there was someone in SA but have forgoten who that was. A mate has a yz465 which is fitted with a vape system internal rotor flywheel and he would like test the orignal system if good wants to run external flywheel and parts as a standard system.

I also find these forums one of the best sources of information.
Many experienced experts, willing to help.

A valuable resource, where often answers can be found by searching the archives.

Facebook has too many idiots “contributing”, and I find, even recent posts impossible to find once the algorithm decides you should be interested in something else.

My thanks to the people running, and those contributing to, this forum.

As a relative newcomer to the forum, it is great to knpw some of the forum history. I joined to gain proper information which is difficult to find. Social media sites are full of incorrect information and advice from "Knuckle heads". I believe well administeted forums are the modern day encyclopaedias with the correct information.

I see no value in expousing rubbish information and theories.

There is a Hodaka 125 which turns up to VERI Vinduro and sometimes the 250 Road Toad. Great compact bikes.

There’s an Australian Hodaka Facebook page and a U.S. one. Parts are readily available from the U.S. They are getting quite a following, you’re not a serious motorcycle collector unless you have at least on Hodaka in your collection.
