Resistor mod
Hello chaps,
I have taken the clocks off a NC30 track bike I am putting together, and as you aware probably aware the bike now misfies at about 5500rpm.
I have the resistors to sort this out but can't find any info as to which wires to splice it in to. I want to do it at the CDI end as I will probably be tidying/ stripping the wires back at the front end.
I have done a quick search but can't find anything.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Re: Resistor mod

i asked the same question months ago and like you found it very hard to get a straight answer,in the end graeme france helpped me out and this is how i did it.
cut the orange/blue wire coming from the cdi,solder one side of the resistor onto the cdi side of the orange/blue wire and splice the other end into the black/white wire,leave the black/white wire continuing on the loom but cut the orange/blue.
is is of course if you have an nc30,i think the nc35 is similar but check before you do it
It's not having what you want but wanting what you've got....Loud ,Proud and Modified ....

Re: Resistor mod
In case it needs further clarification, what you need to do is feed a 12v supply which is live when the ignition is on into the orange/blue wire of the ignition box via a 2.2K resistor. This keeps the ignition box in the `sub 180kph` mode.
I have plenty of those resistors in stock if you need them - for road applications I also supply a `plug & play` resistor which clips into the harness behind the speedo...

Re: Resistor mod
Does it even need a resistor? Our track bike just has a wire link.
