The points shouldn't spark much, so how old are the condensors? The idea of the condenser is to reduce sparking at the points and reduce pitting of the points

They were on bike when I got it but I do have receipt when po  bought them .it had a new back plate on do you think it would be worth buying new points & condensers

hairygit:
Have a look at the points under a magnifying glass, the bits that contact each other, if badly pitted then replace them, if not too bad, you can dress them with a piece of wet and dry folded over and pulled through a few times. Out of curiosity were they genuine points and condensors? As the late Bitsa would always rant, buy pattern parts at your own peril, they tend to be crap! It really can make a big difference using genuine parts on the ignition system.

The receipt is from David silver's the po bought a back plate with points on so I think there pattern parts

yozzer74:
Is it worth going to electronic ignition
