Funny thing the 'Prince of Darkness' moniker. I had a '64 or '65 T500C, set up for off road. Used it for trail, motocross, trials, endurance, hill climbs, you get the idea for whatever my fancy of the moment was at the time. I even sank the thing in hare and hound a couple of times, pulled the plugs kick the water out, drained the carbs and finished the race. NEVER did I have an electrical problem. Go figure!
