midgy Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Good afternoon fellow trialists. New to site and first message posting on this forum I have just acquired a 1979 Bultaco Sherpa 199A and want to convert it to electronic ignition. However, it has Motolpat rotor and stator fitted with points etc. It looks like the system fitted to Montesa 248/349 from the same year. Is this correct? as I thought it should have Femsa rotor flywheel and stator. Perhaps somebody has change it for some reason?. The electronic conversion kits that are on the market are only for Sherpa 199A with Femsa ignitions and use the existing Femsa rotor flywheel, so I seem to have a problem. Any advice appreciated, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetupfun Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 It should be fairly easy to source a FEMSA magneto flywheel. I thought that some of the kits came with a flywheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
model80 Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 The kit from Gemany comes with its own flywheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midgy Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Thanks for the help. I have now ordered the system from Germany. Note that from the end of August the business Powerdynamo are closing and the entire business is being transferred to a new company called Vape and are based in the Cheque/Check? republic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl ekblom Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Might be of interest. I have one Femsa flywheel for 340 marked VAR 41-52 and one for 250 marked VAR 41-51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midgy Posted June 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Many thanks, Carl. I have a parts manual and the one marked VAR 41-52 will fit a 199A, however I have now ordered the kit from Powerdynamo in Germany which has the flywheel and rotor all within the kit. I appreciate you getting in touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
