No spark

The best way to find out what kind of CDI your bike uses is from the wiring diagram or manual of your SPECIFIC model. One not so sure way is to compare the sizes because a DC CDI is usually much larger than an AC CDI.
As for your wiring, while the colours are important, it is MUCH MORE important for the circuit to be wired correctly so each wire goes to the right component in order to perform the right task. If you go ONLY by the wire colours then you may end up mixing up the wires.

The only thing I may GUESS to be the problem is your wiring. You don't have to replace it but do a COMPLETE check on ALL the wires especially the ground to determine if there is a "leak" somewhere. Check all the contacts at the sockets and the switches.

Did you eventually fix the problem? If not I would like to apologise to you for not telling the right procedure for this particular problem. I don't know how and why I got mixed up. Today I repaired an ATV with the same problem that's when I realised I had misled you.
Anyway the test you should have been doing is between the red/black stripe wire and ground. Ground should be the green wire or the bike frame. The AC voltage you must read must be over 20V while cranking.
If it is over 20V AC and you still have no spark then we will try something else.
