FAQ : Which ignition do I have?

[jeffd]

Question : In the United States, enduro models come equiped as either EC models or DE models. The EC models have larger ignitions and the DE models have smaller ignitions. How can I tell which one is installed in my bike?

Answer : 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.

Any more I should add here?
