Mark, you can't trust suction cups

putting a piece of duct tape over the card door?? �At

Isn't the Gold Wing a 4 cylinder? Can this still be wired to work on the Honda two cylinder?

Hi Richard,
The Honda 600's rev up good like any good Honda should.
They have 37 hp. with roller crank bearings and a overhead
camshaft.  This one has straight pipe exhaust. They
stop making power at 7500-8000 rpm due to point float. Oh
how I wish there was a Pertronix  Electronic Ignition
kit available.
Why there is no electronic Ignition kits for the Honda
600's I am totally dumbfounded
Mark

Well that was dramatic. Nice car though.
How are you getting 8k rpm? The bullet mirrors must
contribute a lot to the smooth ride.

Here are installation instructions and an address.
http://www.650motorcycles.com/Martek.html
Mark. what are you looking for? For the price of that part you can build a complete ECU and completely control your timing. Add a few sensors and fuel injection. I got my Megasquirt kit for $207. I used it to run timing only with a carburetor.

I personally think Honda 600 contact point sets are dark age technology and just wanted to get rid of my points and associated high RPM point float. I spearheaded the Pertronix electronic ignition for the two stroke Subaru 360's and Suzuki Jeeps with the Nippondenso ignition. For 99 bucks you get drop dead reliable starting, a set dwell, and never have to change points again, and no point float!. I thought about doing the same for the Honda 600's. I think there is demand.

I would be interested in an electronic ignition for my car and would love to see someone come up with a solution that has readily available parts. I was looking at the Martek ignition write up it doesnt seem like it would be too difficult but unfortunately Martek is no longer around. .

Before I built my ECU I used this solution. The points are still in use with no condenser and mechanical advance is still used. The points will not burn out over time because they no longer carry much current. They just trigger the ford module which in turn triggers the coil. I used the GM coil because I didn't have a Honda waste spark coil. The complete set up cost around $20 from a salvage yard.
