97 CDI on a 96 banshee

[venomaxx]

I searched for a week trying to find a 96 CDI for my bike without having to go to the stealership.

 

Was looking through E-bay and came across a Procom aggressive curve CDI for a 97.

 

I wired in the old plugs off of my old CDI and just left the extra wire (Green with yellow stripe) hanging in the breez.

Was this the right thing to do or is this wire supposed to be connected to something for the bike to run?

 

I guess to get right to the problem, when I hooked up the new CDI the bike didn't so much as even make an effort to turn over.

But when I re-wired in the old CDI it almost started. Motor sounded totally different between the 2 CDI's.

 

Now with this new CDI being classified as a "Aggressive Curve" CDI, and I believe it is given this title in regards to the timing curve, does this mean that I have to adjust my timing plate back to zero for this new CDI to work? Right now my plate is set at +3*.

 

On a lighter note has anyone had the problem of their bike starting up fine when it's stone cold and then tuning into a royal pain in the arse when you attempt to start it after it's been warmed up? If there is someone can you PLEEEEEEEEASE let me know what the problem was so that I can resolve it?

I would say that your timing will proably be more like +6 with the plate advance and the modified ignition.Im not sure about the wiring.As for your starting problem you could be rich on your jetting.

Thanks for the info RILS.

 

Is there no one out there that has had or is having this problem?

 

I've read numerous threads but no one has come back on them to say whether or not they rectified the problem and for that fact what the issue was that caused it.

 

I'm begging for all your assistance. :baseball_wibble:
