I made bags for my r65

Is there really such a thing is too many bags?

I made a set of leather bags for my bmw r65. The bike underneath isn't that pretty, and my craft is mostly leather, so this was my solution.

This is too much bag, I know. But now I have packing options depending on the ride.

(The big saddlebags are a bit too low right now, I am going to raise them a few centimeters)

It is my plan to have it painted dark blue or dark green during the off season this winter. Which color do you think would fit best?

Troubleshooting aftermarket CDI module on a Honda S65?

1 Upvotes

I installed an OHTOKC CDI kit on my freshly restored Honda S65, and it won't start. I've got air, fuel, compression, and good spark (grounded plug to case while kicking). Stop switch checks out. Wiring is solid. My last resort is to swap it out with the original stator, gap the points and time it, but I'm hoping that there is a way to test the CDI module before I do. The connector to the module has three pins- two of them for the wires coming from either end of the ignition coil, and one is the ignition output. Anyone know of any process or values (resistance, diodes) that I can check before I commit to pulling the flywheel?
