Setting up the ignition of Izh Jupiter 5 – maybe it will work out

Soviet motorcycles were previously considered ordinary equipment. Almost every villager had some kind of Izh, Minsk, Voskhod, Ural, Dnepr or Java. While adults usually used motorcycles as a means of transportation, young people had a different attitude towards them. The bike was the dream of a teenager in the village. It should be noted that they started riding two-wheeled vehicles with a motor early there. I've been riding mopeds since I was 6-8 years old. Of course, subject to their availability. My parents rarely bought motorcycles; they had to earn money on their own. And at 12-14 it was already working.


But there was one problem - the bikes were old. And the new ones did not differ in build quality from the factory. It was necessary to configure them, and this caused difficulties. They weren’t afraid to turn the nuts, but fine adjustments, especially with two-cylinder equipment... This was accessible only to older masters or to those who had been playing with their father’s and grandfather’s instruments since childhood. The main problem is the ignition. Without knowing the nuances of the settings, one could try for a long time and to no avail to achieve synchronous operation of the “pots”. It’s not for nothing that contactless ignition was installed on motorcycles in the 90s. And the author of the channel “Sergey with equipment on YOU” will tell and show how to adjust a standard factory unit.
