    Batteryless Rita Setup/Diagram Anyone?

    So ive searched around and cant seem to find a good diagram similar to what I am trying to do. Any help would be awesome. What ive got is a Lucas Rita ignition and two 12v Lucas coils for ignition. 2wire stator, tympanium, and a Sparx capacitor will take care of charging. Anyone used this recipe/ If so how did it work out? Thanks

            as for the original question about a Lucas Rita ignition on a no battery system,
            here's the way I'm thinking about it, The L/R ignition is already a power monger of an ignition and even the bikes were changed to a 3 phase alternator just because they were having some issues with it shutting down under lower voltages.

            so if it was me I'd be looking for a Pazon ignition to run with a "no battery" system.

              The Pazon Sure Fire with a permanent magnet pick up will work with no battery and a capacitor if the alternator is good.
