pma convertion, Morris Mag, NO battery?

[Greasy Keith]

ok here's my question. i want to run my bike without a battery, all i have for lighting is a head light and a taillight. i was thinking about swapping to a banshee PMA setup for my lights and then running a Morris magneto for my ignition, im pretty sure that will work but before i spend all kinds of money on this shit i would like some feed back. and my bike is an 84 with electronic ignition what stock points stuff will i have to buy to run the magneto?

PMA and Pamco will save you money LOL

i just like the look of the magneto. and my bike is an 81 not 84 haha

 

[Greasy Keith]

is pamco an ignition system? do i have to run a battery with it?

Greasy...,

You will have to run either a battery or a capacitor with the PMA to stabilize the output of the alternator. The PAMCO will work with either.

 

[Greasy Keith]

what do you recommend for a capacitor?

I use a tiny battery

i really dont want to run a battery at all. my bike is super simple bare bones i want to keep it pretty bare. will an Accel clamp on style work ok? i could probably mount it where my coil is when i get rid of my coil.
