Ignition System Early Shovel for OHV Big Twin

The capacitor is an important component of the contact ignition. It prevents sparking at the breaker contact, protects it from wear, and ensures stable ignition....

Replacement gear which fits both Ignition systems and magnetos

For all stock distributors from 1937-69.

For Harley ignition distributor with advance mechanism from 1965-70.

The switch from 6-volt to 12-volt electrics in 1965 also called for a new ignition coil. When double the battery voltage runs through an old 6-volt coil, it can get pretty warm. The breaker points don’t handle such high currents well either. That’s why, starting in 1965, Electra Glides with 1200 cc and Sportster models with 900 cc came with a simple black, sealed coil with 5 ohms of resistance to deliver the spark. Just like the original, our reproduction coil is compatible with breaker points as well as the first factory electronic ignitions through 1979. And Dyna  S ignitions also require 5-ohm coils if you’re riding your Harley-Davidson on the street rather than the track.

See the breaker cam turn and the points spark with one of these transparent ignition covers. They mount like their stock counterparts and are made from strong acrylic material.
