Intuitively (no contrary instructions) I installed the rotor with the end of the magnet showing toward the Hall sensors. I think it could easily have been installed the other way round with the blind side facing the sensors.
Would the sensors collect a signal from the wrong pole of the magnet flashing past?
I will swap it round as I have nothing to lose by trying it that way round.

its easy to test... just wave a magnet over the sensor, if the circuits right you should see a spark at the plug. I took one lead off and put a spare plug in in and did this... the bike backfires and scared the hell out of me
shout if you need help
be aware that those Hall sensors are on back order... not due for 12 months! I managed to source a few from Germany...
