Fitted it and it starts

Now got to see what it does....

If you have the race version just about anything you want it to.
Can be switched between preprogrammed cuves several different ways,
Run PV, shiftlight, Tach, quickshifter, power jet solenoids and TPS inputs. Has a an auto-retard 0-5V output and a few other progammable inputs and outputs.
Very important to set the base advance correctly, though.A friend is running one on his LC and his correction was 2 deg on No 1 cylinder and 11deg on No 2. That's but one reason I ditch waisted spark systems.
Will be keen to see what you find.

Yep have Race version - just need to fit a good clutch else dyno time will be wasted.

been on the dyno yet mark? how much?

Not yet Matt - the cold weather kicked in before I had a chance and I had to drain the KR to stop it freezing.

It is currently undergoing mods for the 2010 evolution - hope to be on the dyno now mid March.

MJ how did you get on with the Ignitech? The new PC Zeeltronic is.....is a step up on the Ignitech. Has TCT mode which cuts 1 in 3 sparks on over run which will have the 'must use oil pump' brigade stumped

I'm looking at the best way to get accurate speed sensor so I can use the gear position fuction.
Mind you this level of programming would have been GP level stuff only a decade ago.

Got it running just before winter but haven't done anything since. Bike laid up as no anti freeze in a race engine.

Will probably start on it in a week or so as weather is now better.

If Zeeltronic is now better than Ignitec then that is just evolution. The Ignitec unit was better than the previous Zeel unit.

There isn't really 'better' with the Zelltronic/Ignitech 'arms race', they both have pro's and cons.Each added feature on 1 product is incorporated on the opposing products new version. All of which just gives the consumer a better product. Compared to an Australian product($650) that has 3 features(as opposed to a dozen) and want to charge $850AUD for the software to drive there ignition. No real comparision

is that the PCDI-10K? Could you tell how much is it?

thanks,

No that's the KR-1 ignition the latest and greatest is the PCDI-13 and 20V. The 13 is for RS/TZ 125 but would probably run the wasted spark KR ignition

hi
am using the PCDI-20v on my v-engines , did nt know they can be used on a parallel twin

i m gonna use the PCDI-10k for the kwakkie (180 euro )

Well the ignition only wants to know the base advance, the trigger and the trigger bar tell it when to fire. The 13V and 20V give you a host of extra features for next to nothing.

also think it is no problem but have nt tried it to run on a parallel twin yet , are you gonna use 1 single channel or both ?

does every channel rev to 20000RPM ?

i need 1 for a 3MA bike , have bought 3 PCDI-20v a few months ago , forgot to ask borut about this

i think i was the first to try this unit , cos when i told about it on the rgv-forum some death bodies feld down from the roof

Most of the Zeeltronics units have a 20k rpm limit, if you have a twin output coil you can use 1 channel

Installed a PCDI-20V yesterday was an hour to commission and about another hour soldering/heatshrinking. New software for PC programming is awesome.
