- Will an unrestricted CDI make your scooter faster? In this video I test 3 different CDI's to see if they do what they are intended to do. I also thank my subscribers for all the support. Enjoy.
Blue CDI: amzn.to/3Lu1fEA
Thanks for putting this together, we all wonder what works, and there's such variety out there.
No problem. It's what I would have wanted to see when making my decision.
Thanks for the video. I like your attitude. Just got my first 150cc gy6 and this was helpful
No problem Rico, what type of GY6 scoot did you get?
Wow! Thanks for doing these test for me. I was not sure what to buy. But going to get the blue one. Thanks again!!
No problem Sharon, that's what I like to hear. Helping my fellow riders is what it's all about. Yeah the blue one is "that deal".
Good job. So nice to see a real-world comparison test.
Thank you!
It really did seem like it was doing a lot better with the blue racing CDI the motor sounded like it was running better great video thank you 👍😎🤘
Not a problem at all.
Awesome vids, Kid! I'm about to take on a low-miles 2014 MotoBravo Phantom-GTX that is cosmetically FANTASTIC but doesn't run. I'm watching as much RUclips as I can before I decide to take delivery. Your vids are always top drawer...and I ain't blowin' no smoke...Thank you VERY much!
Thank you Mr. Hawkins, I really appreciate that! That Phantom-GTX is a good looking bike, it looks like the Tao Tao Quantum Tour. Yeah get that bike A.S.A.P. we will have that bad boy running on the 1st day! Anything wrong with it can be fixed, but don't listen to the seller. They kill me with "all it needs is a clean carb. and a battery" crap. I always wonder...then why didn't you replace those things? They rarely are right, a lot of time it's something more simple.
@@kachiskid Kid -- I'm Victor, please...and yeah, the owner said almost verbatim what you did, but I also know it can be back on the road -- and SCREAMIN' -- with a bit o' work. Thanks for being there...
@@victorhawkins3461 No problem, good luck.
You legend. I was looking at buying the orange as told no rev limiter but that blue 1 killed it. Keep it up 👍
Thank You!
For what it's worth here goes my 2 cents!
Be aware that this, well done, test. Show you which CDI will provide better better advance and consecutively lower end power...
Although it is not showing which CDI is providing the best top speed. Without the advantage of testing. I have a hunch that the best top speed is probably from the orange CDI, if all else is equal. Depending on your needs and usage the preference might change a lot!
Worth mention that on a first stage keeping an eye on your spark plug condition is totally justifiable. Much higher spark advance will induce higher temperatures, etc. specially if running a relatively lean mixture! So pay attention to those details so you don't end up with a seized engine! ;-)
Cheers
Hey man I've watched a lot a videos on the CDI your video is a thousand times better because you showed actual performance I was watching that little side road that came out in your video big difference what I wanted to know is I have owned 50cc Tao Tao with upgrades and I got a lot of miles out of it way more than I should have and then I bought a sunny Motors 150 I got a lot of miles out of it but it is now come to the end of its rainbow so Monday morning from family go karts I'm going to order the Tao Lancer 150 sport in Black with silver highlights that CDI box you told me would that be an AC box and by the way all your video surpass anything I've ever seen online fantastic videos not afraid to get my hands dirty with your videos thanks man greatly appreciated
No problem Andy, yes that is an AC box...I want to warn against familygokart.com though. I will be making a video next season about that company. It wasn't the bike, but side panels they couldn't get right. I spent close to $350 and they never got my order right and didn't care. Get the bike from them, but don't expect them to help you with anything else.
@@kachiskid Absolutely agree 👏 bought a 150cc eagle from them came severely damaged by shipping its been 2 months and no replacement parts. No one answers the phone or replies to emails 🙄 😒 😕 😑
@@user-ur9yy5zv1w Is this about Family Gokarts? I have no idea how they are still in business!
@@kachiskid yea man they are unfortunately lol, do you know a site where you can get parts??
@@user-ur9yy5zv1w When you say parts? Body panels, stock parts, or performance parts?
I want to thank you very much for that quick reply
No problem bro.
Very informative video thanks man!
No problem!
I'm a new subscriber I was wondering what the brand of that blue CDI box was that you had just wondering you got some good videos Man really appreciate them thanks
Well Andy welcome to the Kachi's Kid family, I really appreciate the kind words and support. The CDI name brand is GOOFIT. I have done business with them before and they make some decent products. The link for the CDI is in the description of this video.
Thanks man I was looking for a lancer review and found you your vids are awesome and I wana build my bike and you should do some more product reviews
No problem Jonathan, you just made the list, you were the last person to subscribe yesterday before the final edit. Thank you for subscribing and the nice words about my work. I try really hard to show people what I would want to see. I have some more product reviews coming when the snow hits, which is around the corner. Nothing like building a bike of your own, let me know the moment you get yours.
So how do you say your experience with Amazon was and
How do you get a title through amazon
If you go to Amazon I have an in-depth review..The bike was sold through Amazon by Texas Powersports, or Smart Deals Now. A company name SAIA sets up the delivery with you on a time of your choosing. After you receive the bike, you send Texas Powersports the VIN number and they send out the title to the bike. Easy Peasy!
Great video. Easy to follow along.
guess we’re here at the same time
Glad it was helpful!
Thamx 4 that test big homie I'm clear on what 2 bye...
No problem bro. Just trying to help out.
Thanks for the shoutout. Great comparison, from what I’ve seen there is on difference but at last there are real gains to be had.
No problem Ripe, video took a lot of work but it was worth it. Yeah for $10 you can't beat the gains, looking forward to seeing what it does to my top speed now. Coming soon.
I thank you very much for the heads up I have ran into this problem over the years especially with that company Sunny Motors what a disaster
No problem buddy. Looking forward to you getting your new bike!
I feel like the gy6 is an awsome place to learn. How to ride, repair and mod. A low initial purchase price, cheap plentiful parts, well known upgrades, and opportunities to repair. Overall a great place to learn and enjoy.
Couldn't agree more!
I have the same, but in 125cc, very little is different, really (since I have also the 50cc version anyway...)... Very dependable since 10years in a row. A fire broke out 2 months ago, cause some main cables were worn down (!!!), but the engine hasn´t had any problems yet. Now, I replaced the 2-3 easily accesible cables that were molten, and the plastic fairing piece, that was also molten, and everything is like new... Just one big complaint: 1year in, I tried to take off the 2 main variomatic nuts (on the front and rear variomatic-axles), and it was impossible, cause the nuts were fused with the axles, by corrosion... I filed down the nuts off the axles while the engine was turning the axles, and somehow, I took the nuts off, but was really very-very difficult, I was even lucky that it worked out at all !!! If i´d have failed, and had destroyed the crankshaft´s threaded end, I´d need to replace the crankshaft, in other words, the bike would have been useless...
@@klausbrinck2137 So far my experience has been similar in that it's a bunch of small mainly material issues. Vaccum lines, I just switched mine out with some from a local autoparts store. Took maybe 15 minutes tops to do the whole job. Most of the time infact was in pulling and installing the seat bucket/panel alignment.
@@charredskeleton For how cheap it is, I was initialy expecting much more to go wrong, anyway...
@@klausbrinck2137 I too expected a much worse time. With the things other people say on the internet. And the rock bottom prices. Worst time I've had with mine was due to shipping damage. Nothing on the scooter it's self. Overall I'd say it's like getting something good used. A few small issues and some maintenance. Fit and finish is off in much the same way as a good used scooter.
Now I know which one I'm going to I kept seeing the blue one on eBay thank you brother
No problem.
Love the helmet, it's awesome!
Thanks you.
I bought one and installed the blue performance one and it works great.
Great to hear!
The Horny Helmet has awesome effect with ambiance in correlation to the Cemetery background. EPIC
Just got my 1st scooter, so thanks for the posts!
I MEAN, AWESOME VID!
Well I thank you for the kind words. Congrats to getting your 1st scooter and welcome to the family. What kind did you go with? Honda? Ice Bear?
Great video thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Great vid!!
Thank you.
Nice video nice presentation btw keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Been using that (blue) rcdi for about a decade and I can say it does really improve performance.
Yeah bro, seems a little hit and miss with some people, but the video tells doesn't lie. Before the test I was in doubt....no more.
My tao tao 50cc won't start with that CDI
@@mikeylopez9625 I am hearing that and see it in some of the reviews. I'm not sure why, they must be doing something to the new bikes.
@@kachiskid it's because the ignition advance at low RPMs (and of course before the motor starts) is too much,it's 25º BTDC instead of the stock 10º BTDC; there are videos here with the values,they are radically different; but after 3000 or 4000 RPMs, all CDIs are the same (of course,or else the motor would self destroy due to detonation from the low grade gasoline).
edit; see "Project tao tao : 50 cc Scooter... ( from the 49ccscoot gentleman here on youtube) ;
@@josepeixoto3384 Good info.
Big shout out kachi's kid awesome vids!! I have the same bike and stumbled on your vids big help. I put the blue cdi in my stock lancer and it helped with takeoff a little not as much as yours. Problem is I have to kickstart now. Any ideas on a fix? It would be much appreciated.
Thanks a bunch Jake. Hmmmm...that is a bit odd. So if you go back to the stock CDI it starts up with no problems? How many miles do you have on the bike?
Yes starts right up. I changed it out right away there was about 75 miles.
Jake, so sorry about that, did you happen to buy the exact one I did? Using my link in the video?
I just got my orange cdi box today what a big difference 🏍
Awesome.
Thank you for that video !
No problem, thanks for watching.
For me i love the blue ones that i got on amazon.. later on gotta pair her with a goood cvt kit,yes ser a rs8 cvt kits!!.
That's gonna be nice.
@@kachiskid yep, shes almost halfway done!! I did her basic maintainance like the brakes,tires(a vee rubber got it from walmart for about 80$/pair), an oil changes(yep including the gearoils), and front fairing since shes too brittle cant hold it back on front,belts cvt stock(temporary coz my old ones worned out in the middle of my otw to work and belts) soon shes gotta be thai look!! Yes we're gonna try to convert her front into yamaha nmax!!
Can't wait to see it!
0:53 no, the rev limit is normaly based on the capacitor in the CDI hence its name Capacitive Discharge Ignition. The rpm is limited by how fast the capacitor can recharge. (Unless there is a secondary mechanical governor for some weird reason)
Well said.
Thank you for that information. Very insightful.
Thanks for this demonstration? Would a PWK carburetor make your scooter even faster? Could I use a Performance Ignition Coild/PWK Carburetor, Good Spark Plug, Racing CDI and 50cc to 70cc or 80cc make your scooter faster?
No problem. Yes, absolutely. I will never go back to a CVK! I think the coil and the spark plug upgrade is a myth.
Pretty sure the cdi would advance timing as the engine increases revs. Blue one may have more advanced timing thus the better torque. A better way to increase power and adjust timing is to move the magneto pick up sensor which sends the signal to fire the plug
Yeah, I think 49ccscoot has a video on that.
I have a 2020 hawk 250, and I just bought one of those blue aluminum CDI Boxes with the wire pigtail. I noticed it kinda ran out of power at the top end with the main jet richer (I could get a couple more mph with the stock one held at WOT on the same roads on the same night, I swapped back and forth a couple times to confirm) and about the same with the main jet leaner. The blue box idled better than the stock box which idled the same after idle mix was adjusted for more air to make it leaner.
Thought it was kinda weird so ended up hooking a timing light to it and checked how the spark plug was firing at idle and revved up. The stock one held right at the "F" mark on the flywheel which was about 15-20 deg advance from TDC, and when revved up increased the advance to about 50 degrees above the idle advance, reaching that max advance at maybe 6k. The blue box was just constantly at 55 degrees advanced from the F mark, so about 70-75 degrees total advance at all times.
In short, the stock CDI on a hawk is at about 15-20 degrees of advance at idle and ramps up to about 65-70 as you rev up to somewhere around 6k. The blue aluminum CDI is constantly at 70-75 degrees regardless of where you are in the rev range. I wasn't super scientific about it and I was using a harbor freight timing light (my advance degrees are based on the knob on the back) so don't take these as exact numbers. Also my blue CDI had a green LED if that matters for anything.
I also have an exhaust, nibbi pe28 carb w/pod filter, nibbi yellow coil with MSD boot, and the NGK iridium plug at stock gap as far as performance mods with sprockets 16 front/40 rear. I'm light so I can get some more top speed out of the ratio slightly taller than the typical 17/45 everyone with these bikes runs. I can cruise 65-70 mph with an oil cooler, top out about 75 on flat ground.
Great write up. I think if you got 20 different ones, they would do 20 different things. I'm not even sure how they are rated against the cc's of the bike. I hear many people complain that it does very little for a 50cc bike, kinda hit or miss. You engine is a 229cc and possibly the CDI isn't regulated for above a 150cc. Bro, if you filmed this process and posted it, it would appreciated by many. Have you thought of it?
Thanks, I saw that 49cc scooter guy you mentioned in another comment actually did the timing light test better than I did though.
I found out the timing light I used reads for a car engine that fires only overy other time it hits TDC. The hawk even though it's 4 stroke fires the spark like a 2 stroke and I assume other CDI bikes do too, so my readings for timing advance are doubled. Just divide all the numbers except the rpm by two for more accurate info.
Lol, saw it here also. 49ccscoot.
Going back to what you said I don't really have an indication that there's a rev limiter on my stock CDI but maybe some other bikes do. I've throttled it up to over 9k by not paying attention when I had a sprocket setup closer to the stock 15/50 with just a 46 on the rear and 1st/2nd gear would rev out super fast. I wonder if people who see big benefits with the racing CDI have a worn out or defective stock one that doesn't give enough advance or misfires. In that case at least it's a cheap replacement.
Kachi's Kid (hope I spelled it correctly)
What name brand is the Blue CDI box and do you have any suggestions for the Petcock coming from the tank to the fuel filter? I have one that goes in directly under the tank but it is not allowing the fuel to flow. Is there anything I can use to bypass this petcock? The vacuum line comes from the carb to the Petcock and either it is a bad (defective) Petcock or the carb is not putting enough pressure for positive fuel release...

@@kachiskid thank you kindly!
no problem.
@@kachiskid I have the Racing CDI, Racing (Orange) Coil Pack and the Fuel Pump Coming Saturday. I really appreciate your help.
I have one question perhaps you can help me with.... "I only have 5 pins but the CDI box coming has 6... Will it still give it better performance in your opinion"? ELIMINATE GOV OR REV
I also rerouted my petcock.... The fuel was dispersed from the base of the fuel tank.... I shortened the fuel line to make it gravity fed more so than push back coming off of the front of the carb. I now have a speeding ticket 🤣 for doing 52 in a 45... Fortunately the officer was kind enough to give me a warning. The Spedo is wrong on my scooter and I saw what you were using.... "WHAT IS IT"?
Great, The 6 pin has 2 grounds to it so it won't give you any more performance. The app that I use on my phone is called DigiHud Pro.
ruclips.net/video/nJlQi2aZmdE/видео.html
that racing cdi is insane! your bike is insanely fast. can you make a video with all the mods you have done to your bike?
That might be super complicated to do, but not a bad idea. This has been a 4 years project. Everything has been changed, and more to go. Sounds like a good "viewer asks" episode during the winter.
😂ruclips.net/video/H38xv-C85iA/видео.html
We build the fastest scooter in the world.
Hi Kachi's Kid, How did you know if you needed an AC or DC CDI? I heard if your bike has a kill switch then it is DC is that correct?
Hello Ham, yeah the biggest difference is the size of the CDI. If it is larger than the one in the video it is DC. Also an AC CDI has 2 connection ports, where 5 wires connect to the harness. Hope this helps. Every bike has a kill switch, that I have come across.
So question, when I get parts of upgrades. Should I only go with racing performance parts vs high performance. After what we saw here? Knowing these will probably come at a higher price. But I don't want to waste my money. Please let me know what you think. I keep looking back to your videos, for ideas. Not that I don't have any of my own 😂
I truly think those are just "selling words". I would stick with quality parts, so I linked with a name-brand, Taida. If I were to do it all over again, I would go with Taiwanese parts.
@@kachiskid Thanks man that's why I watch your videos. Honestly telling it.👍🏻 May our Lord bless you and keep you and your family safe 🙏🏻. I still like the blue CDI.😁
I have the blue one i love it
It's the best!
What high performance CDI and Coil do I put on a Genuine Buddy 50 2016 where the pins match up correctly??
Thank you
Brian, It is important that you know if the scooter is AC or DC. Sounds like if mine don't look familiar to you then they are running a DC electrical system. You might want to ask my boy Matt at Rolling Wrench just to make sure.
Watch this one ruclips.net/video/verv8XacocQ/видео.html
What app are you using on your phone?
DigiHUD Pro.
Cool, It helps to know. thanx for your time
Not a problem. Thanks for the respect!
Thanks..
You're welcome!
What kind of mount are you using for your phone and how is it attached to the scooter?
amzn.to/3bL4QLJ Crazy glued on.
I think I bought the same CDI box, blue aluminum housing made by New Racing says rpm limit up to 11,000rpm. The scooter doesn't go much faster maybe around 32mph.
Should I be getting more speed from it?
Btw, I have the Wolf Islander50cc moped.
thanks
To tell you the truth, you might be wasting your time. I have heard that they don't make many increases on a 50cc much at all. Of course I don't have one (50cc) so it is just what I have heard. They also say, they aren't all the same, even if the color of the housing is. My suggestion is this, use the heck out of Amazon...buy 4 different ones (red, gold, purple) a little testing and keep the best one.
Hello I replaced my old cdi with the blue one shown in the video and motorcycle wont start . What do you think could be the issue?
Not all CDI boxes work with all systems. Is your scooter AC or DC?
Question: I have an upgraded carb, intake and exhaust on a 50cc. I'm having bogging issues as well as Idle issues, and I've adjusted the carb to where it limits both but I still get some bogging when full throttle. Will this CDI(Blue) fix the issues? Brand new carb, brand new exhaust and intake. When it was stock, it was actually faster, but I can tell she wants to go. I'm just wondering if the stock CDI isn't adapting to the upgrades. Thoughts?
CDI's normally help starting issues. Your problem sounds like a carb. issue allday. I know you said you got an upgraded carb., but did you re-jet after installing the intake and muffler? Sounds like your main jet and your idle jet need to be upgraded or downgraded. What kind of carb. is it, CVK or PWK? Watch this video. ruclips.net/video/iCGjVRyN6YU/видео.html tell me what you think...
@@kachiskid This is the Carb I have. I have the adjustment screw on the side, but didn't know about jet sizes.

The video confirmed that most likely your problem is that it needs to be re-jetted. You need to pick up 2 jet kits, one for the main and one for the pilot jets.

May I ask what brand is your blue cdi? Lots of different blue ones to choose from on the market.

Yo what up kid? Hey I was thinking about getting the racIng cdi for my sons Tao Tao 150 lancer . Just curious do we have to adjust the idle screw with installing the racing cdi? The idle balance is perfect right now before the new racing cdi. Also he wants to mount his phone to his scooter. What mount do you have or recommend?
Hey APK, I didn't have to adjust the idle when connecting to my bike. In the video, that is really the 1st time I had ever connected it to my bike. Phone mounts for scooters can be tricky, mine is really a car mount that I have crazy glued to my bike. I have the Vava magnetic phone mount, it has a heck of a magnet on it. amzn.to/37y6UnL
Alright, much appreciate it. Our roads are covered in snow, so he isn’t able to ride, but we’re gonna take this time to do some upgrades. So far we have the new fuel Iines, getting alarm, and racing cdi, new Spark plug&wire. So just a few things to start with. Thanks again for your help and your channel.

Hi i am thinking of buying a new CDI for my Sym Orbit 50cc because it does not accelerate at all wich one do you recommend?
The blue one is the truth. FYI, it might not do exactly what mine did because my engine is a 171cc.
Can you do video tips on using racing cdi the bad feed back or good feed back
John, I can tell you right now, I have no bad feedback on the blue CDI. It has done, no damage to my bike in any way.
@@kachiskid thank you sir. for the information😊
No problem.
Okay so I bought the blue one along with a performance ignition coil and a spark plug. The blue CDI shorted out on the same day it was first installed. I’m gonna return the kit. What should I do? Send me your thoughts. I have a 171CC GY6 Engine in my Gokart. Is the Blue CDI working well for you?
Yep I would send it back immediately not all CDIs are equal just because they're blue, some are hot garbage. Yes I have been running on the blue CDI since I made that video 2 years ago with no issues.
Does the red light flash to the speed of the bike when it's first starting up ?
Dan, I don't think so, but I'm really not sure. I assumed it was a light to help you know if the CDI is working or not.
Is your scooter 50cc? If so what have you done to it to make it go over 40mph? Or was that km? I swapped my cdi for the orange and put an air filter but noticed top speed loss but gaine a little bit of low end
Sorry Orlando, mine is a 150cc. Stock they go about 55 mph. Those are mph's. When you go to a pod filter you might need to rejet your carb, moving up one size. To go a little faster you might want to try swapping roller weights, to go a lot faster, go to the big bore kit.
@@kachiskid thanks man i might just sell it and buy a 150cc
@@ezurmnd No problem. I think you'll love it.
Yo what’re those glowing strips on your rims??
amzn.to/3ScY3je
Where did you get the racing vid from and is it a 5 pin ?
Racing vid? I got the CDI from amazon amzn.to/2KC4p9h It is for an AC system, not DC.
What is yoyr opinion about orange one ?
It works. I wouldn't buy it over the blue one though.
Wish I could see someone change one out. Not even real sure where mine is. It's a new 2019 Tao lancer.
If you take out the bucket that is under the seat it will be sitting to the right. You most likely have the black one.
What weight are your variator rollers in this video?
13g
What mods are done on your moped? My bike takes a good minute just to hit 30 mph and yours hit it in like 10 seconds
So many it's crazy. Look though my video's, been at it for 3 years.
By rolling weight what do you mean?
The ones inside the CVT?
Yes, the weight of the rollers.
Would you recommend the blue one over the orange one ?
Hey Maxou, yes I would. With that being said I want to warn you that it will put a little more stress on the engine. Also the engine I have is a 171cc, with other performance parts. It would be interesting to see what it does to a stock bike.
have you removed all other restrictions from the scooter?
like what?
I have no problems watching any other video but after 20 seconds yours goes into an endless buffer cycle. Tried everything to get it to play but no dice.
Yeah sorry about that yadaroni, I have had a problem viewing that video also, sometimes. The blue CDI is the best one. 0-40 in 10 sec. on this video.
Weird I just had the same thing happen. It would show these weird green boxes at the top also. I watch alot of youtube and have never seen it before. Thanks for replying to the op it answered what I wanted to know.
Wait so ur "gy6" is 4 stroke right? So does those cdi's work on 2 stroke? I have a feeling they dont.. anyone?
Good question. The only CDI's that I know that works with a 2 stroke are the ones in the motorized bike kits. My 2 cents.
when you change a cdi you need to do a calibration
the settings calibration is in the manual if the part you bought is an original high end from the original company and not a knock off
Never heard of that before. Maybe you could make a video.
Are you still running and would you still recommend the blue racing cdi unit?
You gotta watch my latest video to know if I'm running...yes to blue cdi though.
@@kachiskid Dang man, that's unfortunate it dropped that valve... Just have to build it bigger and stronger, sweet exhaust on that scoot too!

I planning on doing a cross country trip on one of these, im no stranger to the 50ccs, what would you mod to do this trip?
Evan that is awesome, I wish I could join you...if you are going across country I would take an extra of almost everything. Fuel lines, carb. CDI, starter and solenoid. Where are you going? From where to where?
@@kachiskid definitely got those on my list now, plus vacuum lines and spare tire maybe. we are 50/50 on doing from SF to Miami or SF to Anchorage in summer 2021. youre welcome to join us but right now we are planning logistics of this bucket list kind of idea.
That is so wicked, exactly what kind of bike are you taking? Japanese, Taiwanese, or Chinese?
@@kachiskid Taotao 150cc with all the bad chinese parts replaced with plenty cooldown time, if it seems undoable we are gonna just drive.
I think she will hold up as long as you treat her right. Overnight, I thought about your question and I might put a little bigger carb. than the stock one. A sealed carb. could be a horror show. Take a full jet kit for all those different altitudes you will be going through. Stay away from pot holes, gravel and don't ride in the rain for as long as possible. Heated gloves, temp. gun, and heated jacket possibly. Yeah, liquid cooled would be ideal but you are gonna need a lot of breaks anyway. Upgrade the seat with more padding. FILM IT ALL!!!
So does this really make that big a difference? Kinda sounded like the same boggy start on all 3 lol I ask because I'm more interested in low end power like get up in go instead of trying to squeeze an extra 1 or 2 mph out of the very top end haha
Worked for me. Boggy sound was because I had a hole in my under seat air filter tube. Try lowering your roller weights.
What's the best weight roller weights for a 150cc scooter? I have 11 gram weights and I don't like it I want to be able to wheelie my scooter
13 to 14 grams should take care of that.
Mate..can u pls tell if this blue racing cdi will work on my 2 stroke geared Yamaha RXs
Not really sure but I think it is made for the gy6 engine...it is a AC unit not a DC though.
It's not gonna work on a two stroke buddy . The whole thing is a different set up . Different timing and everything.
Heavy rollers dont make u go faster it makes u shift at a lower rpm same with lighter it makes you shift at a higher rpm. You should tune it so it shifts with maximum tourq for me thats around 6-8k rpm
Agreed.
What up Kachis kid? Hey bro, my son and I just tried and install his new racing cdi (blue one). But the scooter wouldn’t start after doing so. There’s a red light on the cdi that doesn’t even light up when tryna start. Wheni plus the stock cdi back in it works fine. Is there anything we missed??? 🤷🏾♂️
Make sure on both the connecting terminal that the color of wires match up. Could also be a bad CDI, do you have a multimeter?
Kachi's Kid no I don’t some of the colors on the new cdi are different. I can’t take a pic of them and send to you tomorrow if that’s coo.
@@apkt-mac6599 Cool.
If i put a stronger clutch spring would I have to go with lower roller weights or can I go higher roller weights
Higher or lower is possible. I use the roller weights to control my RPM's. If my RPM's are to high you go with heavier weights, if the RPM's are low, then lighter weights.
Yes, I watched your video, but it seems to have gone well. However, at the end of it, I did not know if you think that it went well for you and what you think of it now. Others in their videos have commented that the high-performance blue CDI box did not improve any performance on their scooters after installation.
Yeah, the people that have followed the journey from the start know that I have a 171cc engine, so results will vary. I can only show what my bike will do. Throwing it on a 50cc may or may not show results. For, what $10, give it a shot, if not at least you have a backup. I haven't rode without since that install, i love mine.
@@kachiskid My scooter is a 150cc Taotao, and tomorrow I will install new high-performance CDI, carburetor, gas lines, and performance coil on it. We will see then if the performance of the scooter will be significantly improved.
You will be pleasantly surprised if you get the right CDI, everything else mentioned won't increase your speed.
Thank you. I look forward to noticing the CDI increased performance of the scooter.
No problem, good luck. Let me know how it goes.
Should I buy the blue one with orange ignition coil ?
Yeah that will be find, but the coil is overrated.
Bro should we change the ignition coil when we change the cdi?
You shouldn't need too. I'm still rocking my original.
Sir may I know if ks1 cdi would fit to my motor(automatic/scooter) hopefully you will answer my question.. Thanks in advance
What type of scooter is it? Name-brand and model.
Ok, the fuse blowing thang. Which wire do we cut? (Blue racing cdi on a 50cc)
That my friend, I'm not sure of...on a 150cc, we don't cut any wires. Pretty sure that a couple of youtubers have covered it though.
Kachi's Kid Ok, after a blown fuse, and a bit of twiddling, it's the black wire next to the black and white one. Easily popped out of the connector. Interesting that it only affects some bikes.
@@harrisonaard1 Good job. Yeah it seems that 50 cc's are a whole nother beast than 150 cc's. I'm interested to know if it helps you increase your speed.
How you get your wheels to glow like that?? Mine are 12”
That is reflective tape... customTAYLOR33. amzn.to/3b5viPT
i did buy a new china cdi box .. and didnt work at all .. the i tried to use my original cdi box .. and it doesnt work at all .. is dead .. why ??
Check to make sure you're getting spark.
Can you post a link to buy that? There are thousands of them, they all look the same
Link is in description of the video.
Is that speed in mph or kmh? And do you know if the blue cdi is suitable with kymco agility 50?
Speed is in mph. Pull the cdi from the kymco, check the connector. If it only have one connecting port then you bike is DC, and this CDI won't work. If it has 2 connection housings then it AC, which I have.
@@kachiskid Thanks for your reply! It has 2 connection housings one 4 pin and one 2 pin so it think its AC like yours. But im going to buy a cdi with remote control and when i push a button on the remote it will go unrestricted about 50-60 km/h (31-37 mph). So if the cops hold me i may be lucky. The only negative part is that its pretty expensive: 110 euros
@@bleekwater6176 yeah we have the same it's a AC system and it most likely will work. Now I have a 171cc engine in mine, so my increases will not be the same as say a 50cc scooter. The only time I can really see me going over the level of restriction on my bike is when I do speed runs. I rarely keep the engine at max power throughout the day of riding. On a 50cc if you're constantly running wide open you risk damaging the engine with an unrestricted CDI.
@@kachiskid Really? I asked many people if an unrestricted cdi would cause damage to the engine and they said it wont. Could you explain me why
it will cause damage to the engine.
@@bleekwater6176 not will, but could. There are many different opinions on all subjects related to scoots. A lot of people think that the engine isn't really producing enough power to do any real damage because it only 49.5cc. The restriction is in place so you don't overload the engine...now that being said it might be as dumb as how they seal the carbs. so we can't adjust them. Check out my last video and you will see engine failure (teardown in 5 minutes) the valve completely failed. That was a Taida cylinder which is a quality Taiwanese engine....not to say the CDI is at fault. There is a reason why the redline is the redline, nice place to visit but you don't want to stay. Just my take, because you asked...I could be wrong but after $300 in just engines I'm more careful.
I have a 150cc 4strokes pitbike, does a racing 140cc cdi works on that?
Great question David, I have never owned a pit bike. I do know that this is a AC CDI for connection to a AC stator.
Would a new cdi fix full throttle bog? Because my gy6 has a new starter new carb new fuel filter bigger gas tank and bigger gas fuel lines and a brand new NGK spark plug and my god damn gy6 bogs at full throttle plz tell me if a cdi fixes this if not plz tell me how I need help
No, sorry but I think your jetting on your carb. is off. What size carb. and what main jet are you using?
Gotta note that the bike temp for each
Not that deep.
Where did u get the wheel lights
Those aren't lights. amzn.to/32zCnq3
Where can I buy the orange one???
Links are in the description of the video.
Put the blue cdi in my 50cc and it runs alright, but had to be kick started like 90% of the time...
I hear that happens to 50cc's. Check your valves, you might need to adjust them.
Bro one advice I like to give you is if you want to promote your channel just target ''sri Lankan'' audience because most of sri lankans use motorbikes instead cars cause cars are too expensive and also all sri lankans are literate in english to some degree
Thanks for the advice, I will look into that.
Got blue cdi on moped worked on my friends moped (we have the same moped) worked on his but not mine any fixes ?
When you say, didn't work, no performance increase or won't start the bike?
eh, eh,eh... the first test here also took 11 secs, the *SAME* time as the blue one; time them on the film, 0-40, you'll see.
If you change your exhaust system do you got to change your spark plug
No. Same spark plug.
Thanks you kachis
No problem.
Maybe you could alter the intake and exhaust, and maybe the jet, and try it again.
Making a series on tuning soon, will be experimenting with different size jets and a PWK 28mm carb. then.
Goody. I have just put a larger jet in, after putting on a filter, and alloy manifold. Still waiting for the delivery of the cdi... I think that I've done it the wrong way round.
No your good...do you have a 150 or 50cc? What size jet did you go with?
Kachi's Kid 50, and I think 86. The head needs serious porting to match the manifold and exhaust. I may look at skimming a bit, but have to check that the chain will still be good.
Are you going to port the head yourself? I already have tons to do today, but I think I will pull my plug to see if it running rich or lean. I haven't really checked since installing of the new engine. I just know she sounds awesome on deceleration. Wait, what kind of bike do you have, it has a chain? Only chain we have is next to the oil pump, and starter clutch on a scoot.
what about long run ? does it have lower speed ?
No, it increases speed all through the range, doesn't fall off.
quastion can i put diffrent model cdi ..Not my scooter model other model ?
Yeah that will be fine.
Was the blue one a 5 pin or 6 pin ?
6 pin, or AC.
@@kachiskid My dirtbike has 5pins and a square and i bought a blue racing cdi with 6 pins... also bought an adapter with 5 kables so one kable is missing for the racing cdi, will it work anyway?
What is the racing cdi you used?
amzn.to/2B37wqo
@@kachiskid can you help me pls? I have a Speedfight 4 2 stroke builded 2020 and in tacho it's 57 kmh. Original CDI. Do you know how to make it faster, all throttles are out.
I have the blue one
That's the one to have.
Is that your phone telling your speed?!?!
Yes, in MPH's. The app is called DigiHUD Pro.
