Rita - not the meter maid - and Moira

Hi Henry, I thought it had to be http://www.happybikes.co.uk/ because I did not get connected to your link, but I saw you'r right after your link worked for me :D
Good store and sure interesting.

Ren?
 
  Hi henry - we used a modified Rita on our prototype Mkl Saxon/Motodd 120 degree racer - got it from John Carpenter at "Mistral engineering" - a very clever and helpful bloke - a friend had one on his 900SS - seemed to work fine - Regards - Phil
 
I used a Rita on my SF2RR racer.  I retailed/wholesaled them in the USA for about 13-15 years.  John at Mistral was good to work with.

I've also got quite a few Rita instruction sheets and some technical information on my website should anyone need them:

I'm running a Rita on my GTL, works a treat. There, I've said it, now the bloody thing will pack up. But thanks to Henry I now know where to go for the fix!

my friend with the bevel has fitted it and from no idle/splutter and bog down it's gone to a fair idle and instant throttle response with no carb adjustments.
he tells me the ritas have a long dwell which causes the coils to get very hot (very unhealthy) and this box is set for less. naturally enough, he's very chuffed, says it's the best ?85 he's ever spent on a bike!!

Thanks for posting the link, Michael. I'll keep it for future reference.
 
I had a RITA ignition on my Bevel 900SS and the only issue I had with it was some play in the rotor mounted on the rear bevel tower. After taking this up worked great, one of the best after market ignitions for a bevel out there. I once thought I fried the box and was petrified because I knew they were unobtanium, and its good to see you can get a replacement box if need be.
