Here's another tip, Kid. At $16 apiece, I strong suggest you purchase at least three of these CDI units, perhaps a few more. Even the HCE units will fail. I average around 12,000 miles before one of my HCE CDI units fails. :(

However, a major contributing factor to the failure rate of my CDI units is vibration. Riding off road subjects a dual sport motorcycle to punishing vibration which can accelerate the wear of many parts, especially electronic parts such as CDI units.



Fortunately, your ZS250GS is a street bike, so your HCE CDI units might last longer than mine.
