Hi all. New here and looking for some help finding ignition parts for a older bike. Its a 1993 Aprilia 280 climber and the young one purchased it with no spark. I told him to make sure parts were still available before pulling the trigger. Unfortunately, , most all of the links showing spare parts were zombie ads and looking like I may need to help adapt a workaround for him if we are not able to find a drop in replacement for the CDI. The original stator coil that powers the CDI was rotten-open so we rewound it and it is generating good voltage now, the pickup is checking out also but still no spark so a CDI is also looks to be in need of replacement. Not finding any of the original 4 wire all in one ac cdi- ignition units and wondering if anyone has had experience trying a universal ac cdi 6 wire type (scooter type) with the separate ignition coil for one of these older setups with any luck. They are listed in multiple places for under $10 so worth the risk in trying it if no one has just to see if it fires up. Any help welcome on the topic.
