Scott,

Last week at the New Jersey Triumphs Association meeting one of the Lucas
reps was in to talk about our major nemesis, Lucas Electrics.  He was
asked about the PI system and replied that it was not brought to this
country because they could not make the emissions work at idle, as the PI
is a mechanical system.  He also stated strongly, that a  majority of the
parts were just not available anymore, at least not from Lucas.
