Sean, Allen and All, http://www.z1enterprises.com/ Was where I bought my DYNA S electronic ignition system kit. Cheaper than ordering direct from the manufacturer. Good customer service and since I'm only a few states away from their Warehouse, shipping was quite prompt. Install was easy, about 4 hours with a non hurried pace and help from my Dad. I used the 'by guess and by glory' timing method based largely off the points timing and it worked on the first fire. Now here is the major disclaimer - what I bought was a conversion kit designed for my year and model of motorcycle - it was intended to only replace the points, not the coils. In the case of the NHs - they already have electronic ignition, so you're changing out the coils, not the points. (In other words, the complete opposite of what I did) I did look at a $300 setup on Dyna's website that allowed you to map the electronic ignition curves based on RPM - laptop programmable - but it seemed excessive, intended for the drag racing crowd I'm sure. Good luck and keep us posted! -Joey
