Does anyone know if the use of knock sensors has been tried on 2t's ? As lotsa cars seems to have one, could they be be made to work, assuming I suppose some sort of programmable ignition in the first place.

Yep, loads of 2 stroke racers use them. Do a google search for detonation counter.

Can imagine a knock sensor on an old lammy. Would be retarding the ignition so much, as the flywheel cowling rattled its self loose, that it would be firing at BDC :D

Thanks for that.
Current racing stuff does tend to be pricy though. I was hoping that some cleaver person had adapted some thing from the car world. There must be thousands scraped.
