Sooo, I have had this installed on my Motobecane AV7 powered unit since 9/2017. Worked pretty good with stock cylinder and crank, until the crank broke (second time this happened to me-did it with the stock ignition too). This spring I upgraded to a full circle flywheel crank, Airsail 74cc piston/cylinder, Big Fin Head with compression release, new pipe and a 18mm Mikuni. Mayhem ensued. First mistake: I set the timing to 2.1mm BTDC like stock, Oops. This is what ultimately welded the piston to the cylinder in an epic seizure. Going with more conservative timing like other reviewers have mentioned (1.5-1.7mm BTDC) when I install the new piston/cylinder. The good news is that this thing belts out a serious CDI spark. Way quicker starting. Better Idle. Just beware of: Timing, Stator coil screws, and lighting coil output (get a regulator). Oh, and torque the bejesus out of the flywheel nut - chased a "jetting" problem for hours only to discover that the flywheel had shifted...

Seems okay, but screws are still terrible

You would think after all these years the manufacturer would get the message and assemble the stator plate with screws that actually stay in. NOPE! Other than that, fired right up, though I still have some tuning to do.
PS if you want to put your crank in the slot, sport this woody: OEM honda NA50 NU50 NC50 PA50 hobbit moped woodruff key

So much easier to set the timing and get this thing going than fumbling with setting the points on the original Mobylette 6v system. Eliminate any issues and set yourself up for success with this. Everything is plug and play, make sure to get a voltage regulator (also plug and play). Big spark

Great little package with everything you need to convert your old points into some nice modern CDI ignition. Super easy to install as well, but make sure you get those new allen bolts. Haven't tried it with the original bolts, but they're so cheap why chance it? Timing mark is right above the notch in the flywheel. I timed mine at 1.5mm on my 74cc av7 and it seems to work well. Make sure you get a regulator for the lighting coil! it's so powerful it'll blow those old bulbs right out!
