Electrical help needed for my Diana Mk. III
Posted: Sat Sep 05, 2009 5:53 pm
Bike has a mag (no battery in the system) and has always run well. Points ignition.
Recently, when it gets good and hot, the ignition stops working (bike dies). Let her cool down and she starts right up again and runs fine.
Replaced condenser with a new, externally mounted unit--no change.
So, it's either the coil (mounted under the tank) or the stator/mag unit in the case.
Everything in the stator is original, but I did have the flywheel re-magnetized about 15 years ago.
Advice appreciated.
