Running that ignition coil is that a 360 degree crank. It looks like a duel firing set up

Hello

Waveblaster asked if it was a 360 degree engine but from the pictures I think its probably a normal ( for the CB72 ) 180 with a Boyer ignition system which fires twice per revolution with a "wasted spark". They are a good enough system, obviously if its working but from my limited experience a bit critical on battery voltage.
It will be interesting to see what work has been done to the engine.
