installed this kit on mine a few months ago. awesome kit & awesome video

I owned a 1972 R75/5 for 30 years and installed 2 different electronic ignition systems on it. While I was touring in Montana, one side of the electronic ignition failed and I rode it for 60 miles on one cylinder to the nearest BMW dealer. They diagnosed the failed electronic ignition and installed my original points plate and condenser (that I always carried with me) so that I could continue on my trip. I like this newer system as it keeps the points and condenser in situ and makes it very easy to revert back to the OEM ignition system! Excellent video! I love the old Airheads. 😍

A great solution for bent or broken camshaft noses. I've seen a few that were, and the signals were distorted. It is a good extra step to remove the spark plugs before rotating engine with rotor bolt. Signed BMW technician, BMW airhead shop owner.

Looks like a really easy install! I like that all the original ignition parts stay in place.

Cool idea. I put one on my airhead and it failed only after 1200 miles in the middle of the Desert. No cell phone then. I switched back to points really quickly. It's not hard to adjust the timing and the points.

Just ordered this kit, your video gives me confidence on the installation!

In 1975 I ought an add-on transistor framus from JC Whitney. It was mainly a mounting problem. That /5 would light up first kick at 25 degrees f. It was nice to not have to fiddle with the points. And I think the timing didn’t change over time either.

Awesome video! Thank you for making these

Great job mate !

Another straightforward, clear and helpful video. Good job. I enjoy watching your instructional videos. Thank you. (nice bike👍)

Thank you ..great video. Very dinamic and helpful

That looks like a great kit, the fact there's no cutting and could go back so quickly to original is a plus. What was the cost and web site, thanks again 👍

Do a fantastic job from the uk 🇬🇧

this takes me back i had a R80/7 taking the ignition of the cam is so much better if i ever get another BM

Great video, thank you

Super clear instruction.

Thank you for your sharing and detailed demonstration.

Very good material!

Been thinking about doing this to my 77 RS, should be similar.

awesome video thanks! So reading the info in the link, I've got an 83 airhead and would need to change the coils?

Awesome video. Thanks for all the useful tips. I have a 94 R80 and it came with bean can and electronic ignition. Would this still be such a noticeable upgrade?

Fantastic!

Thanks!

Good job 👍

Are you using a timing light with a variable knob/wheel that ranges from 0-60? I have the same ignition on my R100 and I am trying to use the chart that is provided but am confused. I see “S” and “F” (at 3,500rpm) at 6 degrees on the timing wheel, but the chart provided in the instructions shows “F” at 32-34 range. Should the timing light always be set to 0 degrees, or do you change the wheel/dial to different degrees based on what RPM you are revving at?

Super super

Do you have any idea if this is compatible with a high output alternator? I think the 300-400 amp kits.

Is there an electronic ignition/12 volt kit that you can recommend for an R27?

Would that work on my 07.80 R100S as easy ? Thanks for your videos btw...really well made and even I understand them...

Can these kits be fitted to early 1960 models?

Is the procedure for a /7 the same?

Are you also so good with BMW K bikes?

The link to your store is broken. Where can we order this electronic ignition? Thanks

do you think a twin plug head has any merits

Maybe it’s just an English language thing versus American English (is there such a thing??) but adding “super” is super annoying. That aside great video, but I’ll have to try watching it again as I got super distracted the first time.
