Morris Magnetos

There are few products on the HD aftermarket which became iconic but Morris Magnetos certainly are among them and have been the favoured choice of sporting riders since decades. Magneto ignitions have a long tradition with Milwaukee’s finest on both street and race motorcycles and in their heyday were considered as the performance ignition of choice. Admittedly, today with space age, programmable, digital multi-spark battery ignitions, magnetos appear somewhat outdated but if you are looking for a reliable, powerful and simple ignition system, a magneto is still an option. Besides, it looks as cool as cool can be. Battery ignitions depend on a charging system, battery and coil to create a spark, with wires scattered all over your motorcycle. In contrast, a Morris Magneto’s charge comes directly from a self-contained spinning magnet - straightforward and effective.

The W&W selection includes magnetos for a wide model range. Mag housings and, where applicable, the gear covers are machined from billet aluminum. All kits come complete with necessary hardware and mounting instructions.

Installation of the magneto in the sense of travel will require milling the relay-socket on original →1964 Big Twin engine-cases.

Morris MRA Advance-Retard Kit

Morris MRA Advance-Retard Kit

The MRA is a revolutionary new device which aids starting by retarding the timing on fixed-position magnetos, helping to turn the infamous kick-backs and spit-backs into starts. When the cap-mounted lever is flipped, the points 'shift' 10 degrees, retarding your timing 20 degrees for starting. When the motor runs the lever is then locked in the advanced position by a rare-earth magnet. You'll love it! Fits clockwise turning Morris magnetos and other identically constructed magnetos like Joe Hunt, Fairbanks, etc. with cast housings.
