1973 Aermacchi Harley Davidson SS350 Sprint - Latest Find

This my latest find.  1973 SS350 with electric start.  Needs the carb cleaned then we'll see how it runs.














1977 Bultaco 250 Pursang MK10 Model 192 replacement coil - now there is spark

Sent electronics off to Lynn Mobley in Nevada for testing.  Lynn  identified  weak  coil.  This a photo of the new coil supplied by Lynn.  First step in the restoration process is complete.... The Pursang has spark!

1977 Bultaco 250 MK10 Pursang Model 192 -- No spark... the work commences!

No spark.  The Motoplat ignition (above) and coil shown below , and flywheel are coming off and will be shipped to Mobley's Bultaco for testing.  Results to follow.


Flywheel with puller purchased from Hugh's Bultaco.  Always use the correct size puller.  They're relatively cheap and won't damage the ignition parts the way an automotive fylwheel puller will.  

Flwheel before removal above.  Flywheel and Motoplat removed below.
