    Thanks for the awesome replies,

    I did some quick experimenting with dropping the resistor to ground and replacing it with a cap as in the "Diesel" method, it seems to clean up the signal a whole bunch. I really don't understand why. It goes against my basic understandings. But hey if it works it works.

    Just for the interest Ace. The whole reason for this is to allow me to move the motor back 1.3 inches. The RG 500, is actually just a RG motor in a 93' RGV 250 Frame. Its been a wonderful project so far, but sadly the RG motor is so wide it sits to far forward in the frame due to the rear Power valve connector. (It sticks out the motor about 1.75 inches) Even with the frame notched as it is now. So I have built a new bearing to replace the connection and gained a whole inch (WOOT. ><) to a RC servo. So If I can get the electronics to work, I can move it back and roll it forward about 10 degrees. Restoring very very close to 50/50 weight distribution. As it is now its 64/36. It exhibits some very strange high speed head shake. On Power/Braking or visa versa transitions. Tired 3 different suspension re valves, and am just accepted its to far front bias to not have it. So Time to tear it down and move it. At least once the electronics work.....

    Note. I have no idea where you got that Ignition schematic... But thank you, I have been looking for that thing for days.

    Thanks for the help very very much.

    Keep riding.
