Posted December 29, 201014 yr Hi Guys New to this forum, but in the middle of rebuilding a 1982, DT125MX. Coming to the replacemnet electrics and looking for a nos or good used cdi unit for this bike, does anyone now where I can get one from, apart from ebay, or is there a equivalent unit being made today that will suffice many thanks Ian
December 29, 201014 yr Welcome to the 'ward' Ian, cant help with the CDI I'm afraid but I'm sure someone will be along in due course to help out Jim
December 29, 201014 yr Moderator Greetings Ian. I dont know of anywhere as an alternative to ebay but will have a look around. Are you aware that it is the same CDI as a later version DT175? and have you done all the checks because replacing the CDI is the very last thing to do if you have no spark. CDI's can be costly http://cgi.ebay.fr/boitier-CDI-Yamaha-DT-125-MX-DTMX-86-91-neuf_W0QQitemZ140476723423QQihZ004QQcategoryZ117551QQcmdZViewItem ...Paul

Works great , cost about a tenner, and was actually delivered within a week. I dont know if Yam sell them anymore but no doubt they will be expensive. Hope this is of some use. Cheers

December 29, 201014 yr Thats cheap, free delivery too Got a link? Cant remember off hand, but will dig out. The price was plus postage but that wasn't too expensive

It will be 6 wires mark part# 3J0 85540 20 and I still say everything else should be eliminated first, but i will add that Ian was a little bit 'economical' with what he said and for all I know his could be missing
