Title: BSA C12 points
Post by: Joe L on 25 Sep, 2023, 12:49
Hi everyone. I have recently upgraded my bike from 6v to 12v but am currently experiencing problems setting up the points plate and cam. Can anyone advise if it's possible to change from points to an electronic system? Will continue down the present route until a resolution is found. I would appreciate any advise. Thanks in advance. Joe

Hi Joe,

The C12 points arrangement is not too dissimilar to C15s/B40s so a kit will be available.  Fitting electronic ignition generally results in improved starting and better running as the advance is done electronically rather than with bob weights and springs.
