I'm looking for a cheap and easy upgrade to my standard HD ignition module. I'm trying to find a SE 32596-96 but can't find one anywhere.

I have managed to find a 32595-96.
Will this module fit and work on a 1994 FXSTC 1340 Evo?
(with stage 1 tune - CV Carb + Dynojet / SE Mufflers / SE Air Cleaner)

I think it's made to fit a 94-95 FLH/FLT, so I wondered what was the difference?

 

Just shooting from the hip, but the curves may be similar, the wiring harness plugs may be different.

 

Use a stock Sportster one, better curve, higher rev limit.

 

According to my quick search, Nightrider publishes the following:

• 96 and Later 1340 models ...32630-96
• 94-95 FLH/FLT models ...32595-96
• 84-95 1340 models ...32596-96

which confirms you are looking for the correct part #. Surdyke says of that part #:

"These modules increase the rev limit of the stock module while maintaining the low and mid range precision of original equipment ignition curves. 32596-96 6000 RPM. Fits ’84-’95 Evolution 1340-equipped carburetted models (except ’94-later FLH, FLT m"

Frankly I suggest you buy a later aftermarket module, which should give better advance curves, as well as increased rpms. Our bikes from that era had compromised advanced curves, to help keep noise emissions down, a good reason to change from the stock module and timing curves.

 

Your motor is only at stage one, I doubt you wiill see much of a difference between the stock and the SE modual, the Sporty one will be slightly notiicable if you really get on it. Getting one of the aftermarket ones at this stage would be just something to do, but drop a cam in there and it's a diffferent ball game...

I have that modual you are looking for along with a cam and head work, I seems a little better than stock but if I was interested in more performance Id go with a programable one.. But this is an evo, if I wanted to use a laptop I'd get a newer twinkie...

I had a Crane module for several years on my Evo, initially with a stage 1 plus cam, later a tuned 89" stroker kit. It came with several curves to chose from. No need to try using a computer on an Evo, agreed, but they do respond to alternative timing profiles!

 

Thanks for the great feedback!

I've got a new cam on the shopping list, but I'll need to put that off until next year due to finances.

I just fancy the idea of swapping the module to get read of the mid-range "soft spot".

I've also been advised to ditch the stock CV Carb and replace with a Mikuni as it's diufficult to get decent jet kits now in the UK.

I've also been told that the Mikuni will make the bike feel more responsive as well, any thoughts on this??

 

Nothing wrong with a 'tuned' CV carb on 80" bikes. Mine has served me well over the past 21 years.

I have a Dyna 2000 ignition module that was installed back in 2001. When you swap to a different cam, you will really appreciate the different curves, and the increase in rev limit, for those times you wanna 'show off'...

Honestly, it doesn't take a lot of work, or a lot of money to make an 80" EVO run 100% better than it did when it rolled off the assembly line.

 

You can still get all the parts you need to rejet your c/v carb old chap. No need to change carb FFS! You have in HDF a wonderful encyclopaedia of knowledge and are not getting very good advice elsewhere IMHO. Ask in here for guidance and between us we can point you in the right direction.

 

For the price of the Mikumi you can do cam, cam bearing and lifters, rejet the CV and live happily ever after.. You don't need a jet kit, just buy a selection of jets and a sporty needle, maybe 25 bucks total...

Only problem with the CV is with owners who read the internet to much, dive in and start drilling and guessing at replacing stuff that does not need it... Befor you know it they have done so much they cant back track to see what they did wrong... It's plenty of carb for a street bike,,
