[BFix] Too Good To Be True?

[Dan Davis]

Back in my two stroke dirt biking days, I did invest in a product called,
Nology hot wires.  Of course there was only one on my CR500, I think that it
was a capacitor that built up the spark.  The way I understood it was the
plug fired much more than it needed to on a dirt bike, so this capacitor
stored it up and made a bigger spark only when it needed to fire.  I
actually think it did make my bike run faster.  Of course it's probably a
little hard to tell when you take a CR500, then port and polish the intakes,
put an aftermarket exhaust on it, better reeds, etc. etc.
