Does anyone know where the ignition coil was originally located on the late 1950's, early '60s 500 Bullets please?
It isn't obvious from looking in the parts books, just shows the coil on a flat bracket but i cannot see what it would fit to.
Thank you.

It was in the right hand side of the toolbox.

Chris gets the prize! Yep, in the right toolbox, actually screwed to the cover plate that sits over the air filter element. REgards, Mark

That's great - i hope to re-instate the original air filter when all parts are available. At the moment the coil is fitted to the long stud and spacers that held the air filter!
Thank you Gentlemen - mystery solved.
