Pittsburg, Kansas		I remember as a 17 year old being quite a long way from home on a SL350 Honda motorcycle. Died on me.

I was mechanically inclined enough and had some mechanics training in highschool that I knew enough to check for spark. Had none.

So I got out the little small included tool kit that came with it. Which had a Phillips screwdriver. Was able to, incredibly anyone that has worked on motorcycles knows, was able to get the cover off the points and condenser. With my calculated eyeball looked like they were not opening enough. Loosened and set the gap a little wider. Rubbed the points together a little in case they were burnt.

And it started and made it home.
