The pivot in the stator plate was loose on my 1953 D1 125, so I carried a pair of pliers, some copper wire and a set of feeler gauges. The pivot would be tied down to one of screws by the copper wire and this would hold for about 50 miles. I find out that riding through puddles would cool the engine a bit and I could sometimes get 60 miles between resetting the spark gap on a rainy day. the obvious solution was to buy a new stator plate from the incredible Guivers in Sutton. But the paper round money just wouldn't reach for such exotic spares.

I didn't know you could adjust the ignition cam as I thought it was keyed? If so, how was that done?
