German import sold as non runner (no spark) I have spare coils and cdi so what should I replace first. Do you think it’s a failed coil pack or cdi?

nice, great colour too, I thought there was only a canadian model with kickstart? I'd check earths and contacts on the electrical connectors first, you never know it might be something and nothing

Probably un-fixable best send it to me I'll take care of it Joking aside seeing as you've got them start with the coil it's the bit that makes the spark after all

We were having a debate on the handle bars on Saturdays virtual meet
So Terry, as our resident CM expert, are they correct

Turned out to be the cdi, bike runs very well I’m pleased to say, however some may think this is a bad thing but the engine it out of a 400 superdream, complete with 6 gears 🤫

should'nt make much difference to the ride but you will be going quicker than the 5 speed although with more frequent gear changes ,it's what you're used to so wont matter to you
