99% loose connection/ corroded grounding. Check fuse box too. they are prone to get loose.Originally posted by SriramEfunds View PostAll I could remember is the timing was incorrect. After some trial and error method of changing position (since there was no access to timing light device) was able to get the bike started max 2 second kick. Mind you, the bike's choke cable is long gone.
Another way: I found my own way to get the bike started (though seniors can pitch in). I always try kick starting with kicker positioned at the top. If it doesn't then moved the bike a step to get the kicker compression from top and let go to start.
I suspect some loose connection somewhere(God make it real) as I don't want to be on the state where RDD CDI blowing away (silly thoughts)!

Update:- The wires have messed up slightly and fearing might interchange the connection, so pulled out all the connection from RDD CDI and connected the wires to that of stock CDI. It worked. I'll be introspecting the RDD CDI kit during the weekend. From the look it does not look damaged nor any burnt smell. Almost two years had them with out issues.RX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

The bike runs decent. But missing the grunt and free revving.Originally posted by driftjockey View PostSri, so i guess you are now running the old cdi with the advanced timing, how does it feel?
Update:- Weekend spoiled by Cricket and Sunday recovering from the previous day. So did not have time to sit with the bike.

Are the RDD CDI units still being sold new? I couldnt find any info about where to buy them or the costs ...and on the rddreams website, they dont have an address listed, and theyve stopped new user registrations, hence cant post on there.1985 Yamaha RD350 HT

fluttering after changing the degree of piolet
i've changed the angle of my rxz pilot but its was working well initially wit a noticable increased pickup then later on it started fluttering during the initial startup n run for 2 to 3 min.
can any one give me solutions
Originally posted by jagadeesh.b View Postthe starting problem is due to lean pilot. YOu can short the white male in the small bunch which basically is wasted spark off and the bike will start in 1 kick, but thts the shortcut to the problem. If you want to actually resolve this then you would have to play around with your pilots. Also even though the preferred timing by RDD is 24deg. ideally you shud make the groove a little longer and trying different timing in increments or decrements of 1deg and see where the bike behaves better,
Some ppl said it worked at 22 deg for them and some at 25. So it would be wise to play around with the timing and stick to the timing tht works best for you.
