That's for a regular Bonneville, and won't work on our bikes since we have a 270 degree motor and the Bonnie/T100 is 360. Word has it Procom is supposed to come out with an igniter for our bikes in 2 months.

The New Triumph Bonneville forum has some really bad things to say about procom units. Several had failures (one guy speaks of testing 8 straight failures). Most seem to run okay on first install and then will only run an engine that is already hot (using the stock unit to start and warm up the engine and then installing the procom). Do a simple search on procom.

I believe that this will not work on our TBA's or Speedmasters as our bikes are 270 motors and the standard Bonnies and Thruxtons are 360 motors. Thunderbike is supposed to be working on an ignition for our bikes but they are not on the market yet. they are currently working on getting the cams marketed and I believe that when the cams are done they will start working on getting the ignition units engineered and produced.

As Derek said, these will not work on the 270 bikes. All of the bugs have been worked out on the 360 units. I would expect similar R&D failures on the 270 units before they get it right. That's just part of the deal when making these kinds of things.

well next to free beats a blank! i think that's admirable for a company to do that, seriously.
