Greetings all.

What bike do you guys think this cdi fits?

The text says 1974 onwards. My doubts is the Wiring configuration, the amount of wires dont seem to line up with 74' machine Wiring diagrams. But appear to line up with a 71 which is what im after. Anyone with later model experience, or electro wizards have any opinions?

https://www.rexs-speedshop.com/product/ ... t-1974-76/

Ive attached pictures / files of the CDI In question.

The guy in the shop tells me its Plug and play for the later models , cant give any more information than that.

To me, there is no question about application info being correct.
A review of late H1 wiring vs pictured leads seems compatible.
Rex's speed shop is very reputable in UK with triple components.

Since this unit has the components of both the original A and B units in it, there is no yellow wire. The yellow wire of each of the originals connects the two units together.

Yep its a '74 onwards cdi thankyou. But would it work on an early system? At a guess both systems have the same input and outputs to the coil(s).
Is the magic within the same?

No, early H1systems are completely different, and are two large boxes powered by 12 volts DC. The '73 H1 uses a 4-unit magneto powered system like an H2 uses. '74 onward uses a 2-unit magneto powered system.

Explanations and wiring diagrams are available on the resource site, http://www.kawatriple.com
