    Anywhere you'd get a new ignitor for any other '82 xj750. Doesn't matter if it's a trike or not.

    Click the xj4ever banner at the top right of the page and talk with Len Chacal. He'll have what you need.

    Cheers Dave I just couldn't find a new one anywhere on the net there are loads on eBay etc but with no way of testing them I could be buying another duffer and they ain't cheap.
    They are going for around £80.

    It's a bit rough around the edges but I've just rewired and renewed the pinion and bearings and after a little welding its getting a new black paint job.
    That's an older pic it now has four straight pipes on it,it sounds awesome.
    Just need to find a replacement ignitor now.

    It's a reliant axle,custom frame and my trusty 82 xj750 front end with a Honda shadow 750 tank I'm thinking about replacing the cowl for a nice 7" chrome headlight but then it will look like everybody elses.
    What do you ride?

    Igniters labeled 5G2 will work. XJ650 and 750 igniters are the same
