The two ignitions available are the kokusan 2k-2 and the kokusan 2k-3. The 2k-2 is rated to generate 40 watts of power, whereas the kokusan 2k-3 is rated to generate 110 watts of power. In reality they generate about 35 and 85 watts, respectively. Determining which ignition is installed on your bike can be done by simply examining the left side of the engine. The wires for the 2k-2 ignition exit the engine cases at the 10:00 position, whereas the wires for the 2k-3 ignition exit the engine cases at the 2 o'clock position.
Does this hold true for newer bikes? My '08 EC300 exits at the 10 o'clock position = 2k-2. My son's '09 EC250 Racing exits at the 2 o'clock position = 2k-3. Seems a bit backwards to me, of course I'm used to KTM's where the 300's got 3's and the 250's got 2's, that never made much sense to me either.
