Early attempts to fit one to my 500 camel were less convincing.
i recently got a new version of the SWF ignition for the camel , and that solved the roblem completely.
i fitted it, I have now a camel that starts first or second kick. idles smoothly at 1000 rpm , and revs without any flat spots.
at the same time i dumped the original 12/6 volt installation , fitted a old 350 stator i had lying around.
hooked that up to a modern ( aliexpress) 12 volt regulator and a 12 volt battery , so now i should have a reliable electrical system and a reliably starting camel.
that is the first time that happens in the 30 years i work on this bike

just to test i disconnected the battery with the engine running, the ignition keeps working off the generator if i disconnect the battery.
i would probably need to jump start it without a battery, worst case i can fit a condensator to buffer some power.
But i have only had a battery fail once on a trip, and trailered home most of my morini's at least once with failed original ignitions
buying a new battery is easier than finding a new pickup or transducer halfway a holiday in france.
The stator is from a pre electric start morini , so probably 90 watts, just to make sure the battery keeps its charge i fitted LED bulbs to the front and rear lights,that should safe 30 watts.
so now with the ignition consuming max 20 watt i now have more power to charge the battery than i had with the original ignition system and lights.
after owning the camel for quite a few years , i might actually start enjoying it
