MRC Forum- brought to you by www.morini-riders-club.com Member: g7AW3f

I've been beating on my little Italian girlfriend for the past few weeks (esp during my trip to Dallas). Now the bike is cutting out again at high RPM and I suspect that one of the transducers is just going to fail entirely. So, I know I have a lot of options here, but I was wondering if anyone tried this German electronic ignition with tunable advance curve:

Morini Ignition from elektronik-sachse

Is it worth the money? Which curves have you tried? Did you get any performance improvement or was it just like the stock Ducati ignition?

It really costs a lot more than getting new transducers or buying a Boyer, but it looks like some time went into it and it is also tunable which I think would be nice for a change.

the guys on the german forum thinks that it works well... no personal experience

I've used it on the Morini and my BMW.
No complaints, buy their Beru coils and it will come with a mounting kit.
Just to clarify though, the Sachse ignition is not "Programmable" but there
are 6-8 different advance curves, designed to cover the entire range of igitions they offer.

So there is one particular advance curve for the Morini? Which one?

Hi,

For putting around town I'd use #2, for more spirited riding #5.

I had a link to an advance cuve diagram printed in "La Strega" but can't seem to find it,
only my notes...
According to that diagram,
Max advance should be around 34deg, reaching that around 5,500 rpm to 7,500rpm
then decreasing to 28deg from 7,500 to 9,000rpm where it stays.

From "La Strega"

0rpm = 0deg
500prm = 8deg
1500rpm = 8deg
2500rpm = 12deg
3000rpm = 20deg
3500rpm = 25deg
5500rpm = 34deg
7500rpm = 34deg
9000rpm = 28deg
10000rpm = 28deg


Hope that helps.

Mathew
