Greetings all,
First off, incredible site. Hats off to all of whom contributed to this site.
I’m currently working on restoring XS360 1977. I bought this from my friend’s uncle. Though I wasn’t certain I was capable of restoring the bike, I couldn’t help leaving such an awesome bike left out to rot…. And that’s how I got this bike.
The bike has no spark and as I was going through the electrical diagram and checking each part, I realized that the cam on ignition advance cam is worn out. It’s so worn out that no matter how much I turn the cam the points are not making any gap.
From what I can tell, this could prevent the spark plugs from producing sparks… right?
Does anybody know if the cam/ ignition advance unit from other XS models would fit on 77’ 360?
This will be the first of many project until I can get this bike running
Thanks in advance!
