Setting Boyer ignition

My 850 Commando has Boyer ignition and I was told that because it is electronic ignition that once it has been set the timing should never need setting again.

Is this correct?

Thanks

That's the set it and forget it speel. I've had 2 black boxes croak over 35 years from rusted ground points at frame. Trigger diode goes. Encapsulated ,no repair. The wires that connect in the points cavity fail from years of vibration. Boyer guarantee is good. Ground it good. Electricity speeds up corrosion at ground points.

18 years with a Boyer and no failures, just make sure it is nicely wired in, use a silicon in the hole where the wires enter the points cover and ensure that there is a drip loop- actually a sag that sits lower than the hole, to allow for engine to frame movement and water to run off and away from the points cover. I use stock coils and Iridium plugs and can not even remember the the last time the bike failed to start or kick back. Inspect occasionally in the points cover and that's all I ever need to do other than regular bike check over, loose wires, corroded terminals loose bolts bolts etc - the usual really.
