I no longer have a ktm CDI to test...I will have to wait for it to come back before I can say for sure but I'm confident in saying its a firmware error....it locks out spark below a specific rpm..one which is far to low for my kx to fire and I'm guessing on the edge of the ktm's mechanicals rotation once the bendix gets dry,battery is run down or starter a bit worn(2 hours after it was new ;) ) I've switched to a mappable DC CDI for the moment...may look at reverting back to an Ac one once I get it 100% back together and tuned..but for the moment I'm happy to have conquered this project,it's been a bit of thinking but I got a result...

That is absolutely the coolest bike on the planet Earth right now. Check this out Kawasaki,,,, wasting R&D on crap when the best off-road motor sits on the shelf.
motopunk:
