Xscharge gen ii e advancer electronic ignition

[peterg]

I’m looking at this e-advancer electronic ignition as a direct replacement for my Pamco electronic ignition with separate blue box e advancer. I’m not planning on installing it unless my Pamco conks out. Has anyone tried out this new product and/or have any other replacement suggestions?

I would be interested in any information on this ignition as I have bought one for my GS650 when it arrives over.

Bump. Has anyone got any experience with this ignition?

I'm currently struggling with it as well. its fairly simple actually: take the points off, including plate and screw the red donut in place of it. The part that I don't understand is which way the inner rotor goes on, whether its the skinny side in or the fat side in. The fat side has the magnets on it. Anyone know? The only thing out there for instructions is the written ones on the website.

The ad states 80-84, these were TCI years. Mikes description is pretty vague........
