There where two different magneto types mounted to the Bultaco Sherpas.

Some magnetos came from Femsa some from Motoplat, the later Bultacos

which where build outside Bultaco at the Derbi facilities came with all kinds

of magnetos as these bikes where build from the remaining spare parts.

A picture would ineed be very helpful.

Here a picture of the Motoplat magneto that should be mounted

to the Sherpa or Alpina:

Looks slightly different but shoud be the same as just the center is a little bit different in geometry.

The other model mounted to the Sherpa is the Femsa, (on the upper left, slighty lighter):

Forgot to mention:

The threads should be situated in the rear as seen here,

when you unscrew the nut you will see them.

You need a long extractor for this magneto.

You find them f. e. here, or maybe from Bultaco UK:

I would measure the diameter and the threads of the magneto and of course the shaft lenghts sticking out bevor in forehand and give the spec's with the order just to make clear the Extractor will fit.
