I would recommend Boyer.

It's a great system. Very good back up,simple to install.

Heard no bad comments about Silvers system.

It's a Boyer vote from me. I've had one fitted on my 400/4 since 1992, never had a problem 👍.

I'm using Boyer too and I would definitely recommend their system.

I’ve had a Silvers one on my 550 for the last year and a half, never had any problems with it.

Points for me too, the only time I had a bike with electronic ignition it packed up, my CDI equipped H1 Kawasaki.

Cheers

I fitted David Silver kit, I suspect Boyer is better but more expensive? I have had no issue and bike runs better than ever now.

Points for me. No need for that electronic wizardry that nobody can tell if its working right or not.
