Hi guys
I'm new here, you certainly seem to know your stuff - I hope you can help
I used to race a tl1000s in 2001 and after racing riding on UK roads just doesnt get the same adrenalin rush - plus FAR too many unmarked rozzers and speed cameras.
So I was sat at home the other day wondering what crazy shite to build next (done loads of streetfighters etc) and found a soft tail chop frame and as we all know the TL engine is one of the best V twin made, well I love it, so got a low mileage engine form evilbay (£225).
Now the easy thing is to buy ecu, loom throttle bodies etc BUT i dont like to take the easy option......so I want to avoid ecu (for no performance reason at all but just for the hell of it) and go carbs. The trouble is I'm not too hot on designing electic circuit
Here's were my knowledge ends !!!!!!1111
Assuming the engine produces a low voltage signal that tells the ecu where abouts on the crankshaft is (firing signal) - is there any way I can take that signal and shove it into a coil??
Any clever chaps out there? - I guess the answer will be stop being so stupid and go buy an ECU
Thanks in advance for any constructive critisism or assistance
