Hi Sandancer, These are really hard to find now and a lot of owners have converted to electronic. You could try this forum: BSA C10 C11 C12 forum. These people are really helpful and have an in depth knowledge of the early C series bikes.

thanks jodie89, I did manage to find a unit, complete with good springs, just need to fit new points when they arrive, bike is running so much better now, but I will certainly considder electronic ign if points dont improve, especially tick-over, thanks again much appreciated
