Evening guys.....was wondering if one of you chaps could have a listen to your CDI unit when engine is running.....as mine seems to be making a pronounced clicking noise....is this normal? as never owning a KR before i am still learning about these beasts............when Mark(Red Devil 777) came round to pick up engine cases we discussed this and he said he had not noticed this before.....so over to you guys..........

its not really loud Mike,but definitely noticeable with the seats off and no seat unit on,which is the state of play at the mo'Bikemike wrote:You can hear a click from the cdi, when it is running
I think my cans must need repacking, I can't hear anything when mine is running. (my neighbours love me )
Must be a bloody loud click.......

sounds more in line with possibly plugs firing....goes quicker when throttle is blipped......garye345 wrote:yeah mate theres a definate clicking with mine,havnt got a clue what it is or if its normal but will be getting the engine looked over/sorted in the next couple a months so will let you know what the experts say!cheers gary.ps is it quite a quick clicking, higher than say 150 clicks a minute?

Has anyone looked into what causes the CDI units to fail?
Keep hearing about "Duff CDI's", but wondering if they're actually repairable. ie. blown capacitor or the like...
Just a thought.
