Seriously though I’ll source two units and give it a go. Seems it will cost around £35, so might still go the Hondaman route if the group purchase comes off.

Why not go one better Phil .. get something like this in the link and a build CDi like I did for my 1st 400/4 (from York BTW XDN 128R and still out there on SORN but listed as Red and it was Varnish Blue when new).
It was based it on the Kwak H1 CDi but the H1 had a high voltage winding coil on the alternator so i built a 400V inverter to generate the HT instead.
Something like this:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/253621579134
I did over 20k miles with that CDi on it and it was still fitted when I sold it in 1980.

If that one is a CDI, I don't know if I would want one. What I've heard - so, it's not from personal experience - the delivered initial ultra short Volt peak is very high, but there's practically no burn time, so if the initial peak misses for some reason, there's no reserve. CDI (thyristor) works well on some bikes like two strokes (?), on others a transistor EI is favoured. Again, this is from hearsay.
