Honda CL450 Scrambler / CB450 / CB500T Ignition Overhaul Bundle Includes:
Installation Tip: Inspect the advance mechanism under the point plate to see that it is working smoothly. We recommend to cleaning and lubricating all the moving pieces of it, pay attention to the direction the orientation of the points cam as it can be installed backwards. Exact point ignition timing is essential to a smooth running engine, the gap of the points is subjective. We set the points with a test light not to be confused with an automotive strobe style timing light. A small smear of white lithium grease on the points cam will extend the life of the rubbing blocks. Ignition timing should be adjusted every 1,500 miles, expect to get about 4,500 to 6,000 miles out of a set of points before they need to be replaced. Be sure to watch our video on how to set ignition timing on the Honda CB450 / CL450 / CB500T.
