Banshee riders please help!
I have come to find out recently by 3 different mechs that my CDI is most likely starting to go south on me.
Bike will start up when cold but will take everything I have to get it going again after I've been riding it for a while. I've been looking around for a new aftermarket one but I don't have deep pockets to be able to get the top dollar ones. I've got a 96 banshee and what I need to know is what years am I looking for that the plugs will match up? From what I've seen in my travels there are 3 different types of plug configurations from 87 to 06. Will a 97 CDI plug into my 96 or will I have to do some mods to get it in? I need help badly. I'm headed to Coos Bay over the 4th of July and that's coming up really quick. |

generally if your cdi goes bad, it just goes bad. check your stator first and foremost.
96 and 97 cdi's are different, but i believe they have the same plug connections |

almost sounds more like the engine is getting really tired. thats what my old banshee did just before it it let go. however if i remember right that cdi box should work just fine.

Dabeech do you happen to know how the 2 CDI's are different and will it hurt my bike if I go ahead and use the 97 CDI anyways?
Hazard I don't think that my motor could be getting tired just yet due to there has only been 4 to 5 very short rides on it since the top end has been rebuilt. (thanks for the info though) The reason why I was thinking it was the CDI is because 2 out of the 3 mechs that I talked to diagnosed the problem before I even got done telling them what my problem was. |

electrical is hard to troubleshoot. But generally if a CDI goes bad, it just goes bad. If a motor runs at low rpm and a cool motor then progressively gets worse its very likely its a stator. Shorten your plug gap to .005 to see if it helps any.
not sure what the difference is, although it wont hurt anything. |
