bad state in which the dynamo was found after the 10000 mile test.
Now that dynamo output has been considerably raised the cut-out may need some revision in the current carrying parts viz. - Contacts, armature flexibles and series coil.
The new points fitted to 24EX will be watched for signs of overheating &c.
