Vape Ignition 



For machines fitted with GP crankshafts, VARIABLE timing, AC output.

The new ignition system from SIP manufactured by VAPE.  There are different versions for each model, so make sure you get the right one for your requirements.  Choices are static or variable timing, then you can choose AC or DC supply. 
SIP have managed to gain the assistance of a major European producer, VAPE, to manufacture these high-end ignition systems.

The DC type should be used if you wish to power digital components such as the SIP Speedometer, or you require a high battery loading charge. By using the DC version with SIP Speedometer you required a Rev Signal Filter from KOSO. Instead the Rev Signal Filter you can also connect the brown Cable from the SIP Speedometer to the white CDI Cable of the SIP/VAPE CDI with an extra Cable!
 
The CDI module with this 'sport' version comes with a variable pre fixed ignition curve. 

Due to the eight coils included on the stator-plate enough power is created at tick-over revs to already fully illuminate the lighting.

The pick-up on the stator-plate is split into two and arranged on top of another instead of next to each other as with the original design. This eliminates the possibility of false positioning during the initial set up due to the sloppy manufacturing tolerances included on many engine casings, crankshafts, stator-plates and flywheels. The exact ignition point is clearly marked with a precise line on both the flywheel and stator-plate, which allows ignition adjustment without stroboscopic lamp. All you need to do is find out the top dead center (TDC).

 One of the most major advances achieved is the production of the fly/fanwheel unit as a single component, avoiding a riveted inner mounting-cone and an uneven rotation. This greatly reduces engine vibration while also noticeably extending the working life of the flywheel side crankshaft bearing. The fanwheel is CNC machined from solid aluminium and delivers an identical volume of cooling air to the cylinder as the original throughout the whole rev-range.

The flywheel intended for the DL/GPs weighs 1650 gr, making it considerably lighter than their original counterparts. This primarily improves throttle-response, but leaves the motor easily manageable in urban traffic and while carrying a pillion.

Flywheels are 100% compatible with the original flywheel remover type.

Technical specifications :

A relatively high 110W power is available from tick-over for greatly improved lighting.
Can also power additional electrical components such as a fuel pump, lambda sensor heating, USB power-port etc.
Precisely balanced flywheel due to its one-piece construction.
Plug & Play installation without a strobe-lamp due to precise ignition point markings.
Perfectly arranged rotational mass, improved throttle-response.
Ideal cooling performance, identical with original type.
Twelve-finned, CNC machined fanwheel.
RPM linked variable ignition point (SIP PERFORMANCE 'Sport' version).
Complete delivery includes : CDI, Fly/fanwheel, rectifier (DC), regulator (AC).
Single woodruff key slot on crankshaft mounting of the flywheel, avoiding incorrect set up.
