Points cracked

Post by Modracer70 »

Found this issue when replacing my condenser, a crack. Near the rub pad on the points, look close at end of screw driver, anybody ever seen this?

Where did you source the points from? Could be a "Chinese Replica of Ill Repute". BMW, of all makers, had a problem with a run of bad quality points from the orient a few years back. Outsourced Bosch parts.

I'm sure I got them from Paul or hodaka-parts, these are pretty high mileage, over 1000, in my almost daily rider. Found them while using a timing light to set timing, there was a spark coming from where the crack is.

Looks like my points. These come from Japan and are made by Daichi. Cannot get much better than that.
