honda_trials Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 I have been asked by a couple of people about getting a CDI repaired, one for a TLR200 Reflex and the other for a TLR250. Does anyone know of a repairer? A supplementarty question: is there any other CJI readily available that will fit or can be converted? I am sure somoeon out there has had this problem before!

max1956bikes Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 i doubt its the cdi at fault.i repair motorcycles for a living mainly hondas,i have only put one cdi on a 125 in forty years and that was stolen recorved i think it had been shorted out by idiots messing with wireing. its more than likely its the generator thats at fault.

honda_trials Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Thanks Max, the messge I got was: "I have a TLR250 with broken CDI (not advancing) rendering the bike useless. I can't find anyone to repair it (some of the wires are broken at the box)." So I think in this instance it could be the CDI unless you have any other thoughts?

woody Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Yes Jim, it could certainly be the CDI as Colin has had one or two TLR Hondas, both 200 and 250 with with failed CDI. Might be worth giving him a call to see if he has a resolution for the problem. I think the chances of getting a new replacement are zero.

neil king Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 I ordered a chinese CDI today, I'll let ya'll know if it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil king Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Well the chinese CDI seems to work pretty well. I've got a lot of work to do to the bike but I was holding off till I got it running. A guy in New Mexico is sending me an original off a non runner. But I will use the chinese one if it doesnt work. The CDI is hard to diagnose. I checked the new one with my ohm meter it looked just like the one that didn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honda_trials Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi Neil, Interesting to hear that a chinese one works - no reason why it shouldn't of course! Where did you get it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
