The mechanical switch isn't the best option for me as it get wet and full of sandy mud when I ride in the spillway. I always check brake lights and turn signals before every ride. Never fails that after a trip to the spillway I have to play around with it to get it to work again because it gets stuck from dried up grit that didn't get washed out form the previous trip.

Got my new CDI coil in. Just need to make up a new plug wire that has an HEI style wire end for the coil, then figure out of I can mount it up in place of the stock coil, or if I need to relocate it or make a bracket for it.
My attempts at advancing the pickup were thwarted for now. Slotting the bracket isn't a viable option due to the pickup bracket holes having dowels. There is the possibility of actually moving the pickup itself on said bracket since it looks to be bonded to it in a slot on the pickup itself. This is somewhat similar to how Jeep crank sensors are modified for more ignition advance, where the pickup is slid on the bracket itself. I am going to wait until my VFR is back on the road before I go tearing into my Hawk for project purposes. So that is on hold for now. The only other thing I did today was swap out the 13 tooth front sprocket for a 12 tooth. This gives me the same effective gearing as a stock tire with a 17/46 setup. While the 13/31 is great for munching up highway miles, I have been using my Hawk a lot more in the city itself, and I plan on doing more off-road adventures this summer. The 13/31 is just a bit too tall to try and power through loose surfaces or zip around in traffic for my liking. The only thing I need to get used to now is shifting more often lol. I can still cruise along at 60mph at 6500rpm, and 65mph at 7000, so it can still quite easily do my 10 mile jaunt to work on the highway. No more 75mph top speed runs, but I am quite ok with that. I can still hit 70 lol.
