One of the items in my order is the CDI unit, which as I understand it, is the first one in the US. I have to tell you, Chinoy was meticulous at making sure this thing was going to work on a US spec bike. We exchanged digital pictures and the whole bit. EVERYTHING is labeled and totally top-notch. I can wait to get this thing on the bike.
The kit
has been installed and is running great ready the complete story on the Alexe's
RD Forum Where I have
posted a review of the kit.
Jan Tore / Norway (Second Customer)
I have
just mounted the CDI on my bike, and guess what. The bike started on first kick,
and idled very smoothly. Have also fitted a 100/55w headlight bulb. I must say
that the light before was candlelight's compared to this. Yes!
You got it right, you don't actually need a battery! Great for racing, less
weight! I guess this kit makes the bike a few kg lighter, since the magnetic
drum and coils are far lighter than the old system. What is also a nice one for
my 27 year old RD is that it comes complete with new wiring harnes for the
entire bike, blowing away problems with crunched wires and bad contacts. Great
job Chinoy!

I am very happy with your CDI, please instruct me on how to leave feedback. My Dynojet Dyno at work showed a 3 hp gain and 4% better burn efficiency. I changed nothing else but the ignition.

Just a quick note to advise you I have my '78 Yamaha RD400 up and running. Since the bike sat in the weather for over ten years before I bought it you can imagine what kind of shape it was in, including the wiring harness. It was totally corroded and useless. Your CDi system with the new harness made that part a dream to restore. The bike started on the second kick and runs perfectly. I will send photos as soon as I am able. Thanks for making a superior product, and thanks for making it so affordable. I will gladly furnish a glowing recommendation to any potential customer. You service is first rate and the product is superior.

Coments: finally my Digital CDI kit is installed on my
1975, RD 350 B, WOW !
chinoy, the increased torque on the lower RPM's was phenominal !, pulled a
couple unintentional wheelies just playing, when the bike was first run.
top RPM power was pretty much the same, but the engine run much smoother thru
out the entire power band.
Good job on designing the timing curve.
just to show you how much fun the RD was with the CDI ignition, all the
mechinics at the bike shop were lining up to ride it, and when they did, big
smiles for everyone. who says 30 year old 2 strokes still can't thrill in
today's liter+ riding crowd ?
I gave the mech"s the RD dreams web site (a couple of guys drag race 2 strokes )
hopefully you have recieved some inquires about the CDI ignition and it's
compatibility with Kawasaki 2 stroke triples.
now over the winter, I have to get the cosmetics on the RD up to par (right now
it looks like a rat bike). so I'll be ordering up some more parts soon and will
send a couple of photos out in the spring when the bike is done.
Note:
One thing is clear every single customer has a very special connection with their RDs. They come to us because they want the very best for their bikes. And we take great pride in making sure what they get meets and exceeds their expectations.
