I want to let people know of the great service i recieved from Rex Caunt ignitions
http://www.rexcauntracing.com/I imported a BSA Metisse from the UK last year and when it arrived it was a Bastard to start
( it started ok for the previous owner as my dad videoed him starting it prior to me buying it ) probably didn't like the sea trip
Any way it is fitted with a Rex Caunt electronic ignition and i always thought the spark was at best a bit iffy at cranking speed .
I contacted Rex and Deb at
http://www.rexcauntracing.com/ and asked for the stator specs to run a few test .
These guys couldn't have been more helpfull , bottom line i recieved all the specs i needed to test and Rex advised that the problem was probably in the CDI . Rex asked for my address and posted an uprated digital replacement CDI to me at no cost along with the instructions to adjust the timing to suit .
Being a Dufus i still had to pester these guys for more advise and every time they were a huge help and were very understanding when i was asking basic questions .
Bear in mind i never purchased the unit from these guys in the first place , it was purchased by the previous owner a few years ago Yet still i was treated really really well , These guys sell ignitions and accessories for old bikes and they back it up with old fashioned service very rarely seen these days .
Check out their web site they really are a great outfit to deal with
