Hi all. kwak750ltd here was created by kwak750ltd
I live in England and have had in the past a 440 ltd which I loved. My 50th Birthday came around in August so I got myself a nice little 750 ltd from e.bay. I think it was sprayed up by Stevie Wonder and had a lot of problems . I was blessed with having 2 weeks off work soon after so in the shed I went. First job was to strip the back frame down leaving the wheel in place and sand down the frame for a spray up. 33 years had not been kind to it, so I started a restore job. Finding things like the rear plastic mud guard broken by the bolts and rust coming through the rear fender. Moving forward to the battery box and the wiring. Still don't know where the ignition module is ment to be mounted ?. Spayed frame up as far as rear engine mounts and ordered some new parts for it. Still a a big to do list like cam chain rattle ( that is bad. ) Carb clean and balance, but first need to sort gearing out as engine is at 4200 rpm in top gear at 45- 50 mph. Loads to do. So little spare time to do it.

Howdy. If by ignition module you mean the igniter, it's bolted to the left side electro bracket, directly behind the fuse box.
Left side -->> electro cover removed. Igniter hidden behind fuse box. the 650-CSR is very similar to your Ltd.

I suppose I should start from the time i got it. The 1983 750 ltd H3 came to me about 3-4 weeks ago . The first 2 weeks were spent living in my shed ( that's me , not just the bike. ) It's an American import with 49,000 on the clock. It was all black and sold with 11 months m.o.t. I'm not going to tell you the price. As it's 33 years young it needed a little tlc and to have it the way I would like ment a part strip down. I am no way a mechanic or a paint sprayer. But do like tinkering. First job was the back end. Looking close, you could see rust on all part's and under the seat was not much better.
So here are some of the other pic's I took during that time
Will show more pic's in a while when I convert them to a good size.

If it's an 83 model, then it would be an H4.
