Ignition Coils.

The coils shown in the pictures  below are all modern voltage driven types. The single output coil has a large metal clamp so it can be bolted to the the metal framework of the vehicle. The twin output coils have two studs which can be bolted to the framework of the motorbike. This can be seen in the pictures featured in page ' Redundant spark ignition'. The twin output coil is mounted underneath the seat and is fixed by the studs to the metal of the battery box.

Below is shown the twin output coil with direct connections to spark-plugs, so the distributor cap and rotor arm can be dispensed with not only simplifying the system but making it more efficient.
