Someone who has fitted a boyer must have a spare advance retard sitting around.

The best setup in my opinion is points, because you can then start the bike (older twins) with a flat battery. As an additional improvement you can get CD ignition units that just pass a few milliamps through the points giving them an expacted life of over 35K miles. These cost about £25 from some Enfield dealers. The great thing about them is if the electronics fail you can revert to normal points by changing over 3 push fit connectors. Making the bike much more 'survivable'.
