The electronic ignition has made a big difference on my 1940 Harley which I use as a daily driver. Provided my pre-start routines are correct (choke, spark retard, fuel open, throttle position, key on, etc) it will always start on second kick when cold; first kick when hot.

I am thinking about installing an ignition on one of my forklifts.
I like the fact that the ignition eliminates one troubleshooting variable should there be a problem on any of these engines.
