I finally was able to get the old girl out on the highway to see if the ignition box changed anything on top end. Wow did it ever; before with the original box I was only able to reach around 90-95 mph and it would start breaking up! Now 110 and still climbing!!! i just can't get over how different the bike runs. I would recommend this mod
