Matchless lives again

Replacement mag bolted straight on. Only difference was setting the timing up. On my original NR1 competition mag it was pull lever inwards to retard the ignition i.e fully advanced is on a slack cable. But on this replacement N1 mag its pull lever in to advance i.e fully advanced on tight cable. A fairly critical difference to consider when setting the ignition timing up you would agree!!
Started second kick and ticked over ok, however what is that smoke I see - ht lead touching the exhaust and burning through so not exactly a trouble free exercise - next job replacing ht lead and routing it away from hot things!

 
My mag is now with Armoto near Chesterfield who are going to repair and return within 10 days.
