My sons just bought a 1934 Royal Enfield, the cost of bits is killing him well the few we can find, as he is a humble apprentice. Its missing the Mag Dyno thing, only one we have seen is £300 and its not working so as its only for shows and wont be having much road use we are thinking of using a total loss battery powered system, has any one done this?
We have seen a few on line but it would be good to talk to some one who has done it, we are even contemplating building one

He just wants the bike together and running originality can wait until he can manufacture the parts he can't find.

a lot of my classic trials mates have pre 65 trials bikes and some have got more modern ign systems, it may be worth asking on some dirt bike forums about it, most old bikes do have very similar ign on them, can't be inpossible to do.
