    Bit late to be asking then :p

    Don't forget, you won't get any lights or charging with it. What setup is it for?

    Almost all inner rotor come without a AC light coil, so you won't have any headlight's, and your battery will go flat powering the brake light and indi's etc. as it won't be charged. It's pretty much a waste of money for anything but a highly tuned sprint bike.

    Your headlight's won't work without some serious bodging, period. I suppose the brake light's and indi's could be replaced with LED's to make the battery last a little longer. Another thing, your clock's may or may not work, I can't say for sure.

    Damn :/ I might have to get another battery in the scooter and have a circuit for the lights maybe? :confused: Urgh i don't know what to do now. I just sent an email for a refund as it didn't say on the description that using this product will not let you use your lights or charge battery.. Big Big Sigh!

    Right well, i've just ordered another whole ignition system. standard one for a typhoon 125.. When the new one comes.. if i can think of a way round it by putting on the hpi and having a my lights and battery being cahrged then ill stick with the hpi if not. Then the HPI one is up for sale! just cost me 288 quid INC post and package. Will happily sell it for 220 INC post and package! :) Thanks.

    If they hadn't posted it then you could have cancelled your order. Otherwise you could have just sent it back.

    Buying a standard air cooled ignition for a Typhoon was a silly idea. Much better idea would be to get yourself one off a runner and a cdi as it's a good improvement on typhoons.

    There is no way round it. Also, there probably isn't provision for attaching a fan to it.

    Pm me instead.

    The Runner stator, flywheel and cdi fit fine you just need to tap some holes in the flywheel for the fan cover. Two min job.

    Try and find the lot second hand. It isn't worth it buying new...
