Description:
New Stock Part, in it's Newtronic packaging, please take a look at the photos.
Since their introduction in the 1970s,
tens of thousands of motorcyclists have experienced the benefits of a Newtronic ignition system.
Developed from the original Piranha system,
Newtronic ignitions are contact breaker replacement ignition systems covering a range
of Japanese and European motorcycles from the late 1950’s onwards.
Using contactless, maintenance free,
infra red triggering the Newtronic ignition has gained a reputation for ease of installation
and effectiveness from satisfied motorcyclists around the World.
Newtronic ignition systems are manufactured by Autocar Electrical whose product range include the highly regarded Lumenition Optronic electronic ignition.
Applying the knowledge and expertise gained from 40 years of Optronic production and development, Autocar Electrical has improved manufacturing
standards and reliability by using up-to-date materials, modern assembly line techniques and factory-assembled surface mount electronics.
The resulting range of 1, 2 and 3 channel coil control switching units bring greater reliability to the entire range of motorcycles
The switching units include an integrated timing LED for each channel,
making it quick and easy to accurately time each cylinder independently
(an essential step in gaining the best performance from your engine.)
The Newtronic application list below features bikes back to the late 1950s but older or less common motorcycles can often be quite simply converted by using Newtronic component parts.
Although Autocar Electrical does not offer a conversion service,
we are always interested in offering help and advice to those who wish to adapt a system for use on an unsupported vehicle and can offer a selection of piece parts to help the customer.
A good example of this has been one customer’s very successful Newtronic conversion for racing Morgan three wheelers which has become popular in that community.
Motorcycle Applications
If the motorcycle you are interested in is not on the application list we will not have a standard adaptation kit available for that specific model. However new kit introductions are in development all the time and will be advertised in the motorcycle press as they are released.
System Description
The Newtronic Ignition system replaces the contact breakers and condenser on supported vehicles and replaces them with a contactless electronic switching system triggered by a beam of light.
The system typically consists of three main components:
1. An ADAPTOR plate which mounts the “lamps” supplying the beam of infra-red light.
This is broken by the ROTOR as it rotates on the engine cam or crankshaft.
When a beam of light is re-made as the rotor blade clears the beam the switching unit is instructed to fire the coil (please note some systems will have separate mounting plates for each lamp and will not be assembled on a single plate as shown.)
In many kits these are supplied as 1 lamp per cylinder.
Other kits use a “wasted spark” system with 1 lamp firing 2 cylinders.
The adapter kit also includes the parts needed to fit the lamps around the motorcycle cam or crankshaft –
usually supplied as a base plate and /or segment plates with pre-mounted lamps.
2. A ROTOR which fits on the bike cam or crankshaft and makes and breaks the lamps’ infrared beam when the coil is to be fired.
The rotor may be made of metal or a heat and solvent resistant plastic.
3. A SWITCHING UNIT which collects coil firing instructions from the rotor traversing through the lamps and fires the coil.
The switching units are supplied positive or negative earth depending on the bike configuration and have a separate switching channel for each lamp in the Adaptation Kit.
12V and 6V versions are also available especially for earlier bikes.
The switching unit has an integral timing light for each coil and is fully compatible with existing systems to the older design. It is also a direct replacement for Piranha switching units.
4. An INSTALLATION WIRING LOOM is supplied with each kit,
tailored to the original bike loom dimensions,
connectors and wire colours for a quick, easy and professional looking installation.
The system requires standard motorcycle maintenance tools to install and is easy to fit.
Please note that the resistance across the ignition coil primary terminals must be at least 3 Ohms (many bike coils are 4 Ohms or higher)
Please also note the Newtronic system does not include any ignition advance or retard functionality and relies on the mechanical advance and retard mechanism originally fitted to the bike.
