As I'm a fan of electronic ignition can I be your first beta test customer. I have a new CB750 project waiting.

I too like your input Ash, and most discussion on these bikes can generate in depth technical response, or have the potential to, simply because there was so much R&D deployed by Honda in bringing such resolved products to market in the first place.

Ordinarily you'd have to get a long way into the detail just to understand what it is you're trying to improve upon, that includes the OP question about use of alternative ignition system to original. 

For those that don't want to read it, there's an easy answer though  :) but with little action on other threads and this one delivering interest in understanding and debate, then clearly it fits within a forum like this.

Push of, I’m the test pilot for Ash. He’s doing all the heavy lifting and clever stuff

Nah your the Alpha tester and development guy. I could be the first paying customer when it goes into Beta.

Now now boys .. you can't both test it simultaneously.  ;D  I will probably test mine on a purpose built test rig ..with it running continuously at rev's equivalent to 80 MPH in an oven at elevated temperature akin to what it will 'see' on a bike... plus excursions to higher rev's and with it also 'static'  with the points closed condition.
IMHO I  think it needs to be achieved in a package the same size envelope as the B.B. ignition black box if possible. After all Ernie Bransden was electronically switching the same coils/currents way back in the 70's,  in that small package and ... as far as I know .... the black box was pretty reliable. Unless anyone on here has experienced failure.
