Thanks for the offer dANBOT - I'll see how much it would cost.
I don't doubt that you are correct on the estart vs kicker CDI, but I cannot reconcile that with my own experience.
I removed the need for a key pretty early on after I bought it. The bike ran fine. Then, I removed all of the estart gear and went to kickstart only.
The bike ran fine for almost a year before it quit on me in Oct. 2016.
If what you are saying is true, should my bike have even run once I got rid of the key and estart?

I'd gladly try your cdi, but being in canada... im sure the shipping would be killer eh lol. One thing to keep in mind, is that an e start cdi is not compatible with a kicker. On the battery bikes, 12v is supplied to the cdi when the key is on.
