How a motorcycle electrical system works, part 4 IGNITION SYSTEM

In this episode, we continue our journey into the DR650 electrical system with a look at the ignition system. This is in my opinion the most complex and potentially expensive part of the systems on the DR so I have taken a bit more time to develop it.
I also want to share a great channel I often watch that provides a great solution to a potential problem any DR owner may face.
