Good afternoon anybody had any problems with their ignition, when it’s cold it’s running very nicely but as it get warmer it starts to loose power and feels very sluggish, I’ve replaced the ignition coil and cleaned the carbs out completely . I’m thinking maybe it’s the pickup coil/ alternator. Thanks

Does sound like windings but lc2 cdi's are known for going iffy after a little time

At risk of pushing you into spending yet more; Buy / fit a Zeel ignition. It can solve a Lot of running issues and usually gives a Notable power increase. Similar to fitting a 'Good' set of pipes. The uprated electronics, in the very least, supply a stronger impulse to the coil for a hotter spark.

You need to test the hi and lo speed windings with a multi meter
Do them cold then then heat with a hairdryer and test again

There are 3 wires for the hi and low
You need to test resistance between red and brown then green and brown
The correct values are in the manual
