Earlier in May this year my black LC hybrid very unexpectedly and without any warning stopped. It turned out as the AA man told me, that there was no spark going to the coil. I am no mechanic but i surmised that this could be a CDI problem. Now as you know CDI's are non reparable and although my engine is a YPVS it has a TZR CDI which worked fine up to this point. A hunt for a used one turned up nothing, so a call was made to Mutts to order a "Ignitech" unit. The unit duly turned up with a map pre-loaded my Mutts, many thanks sir, for your prompt supply of said unit and all your help and advice. I am no electrician but thought how hard can it be to wire in? My bike has a 4LO loom with YPVS bits added and a TZR CDI (Mutts did explain that without much electrical knowledge it might not be so straight forward). That question was answered the minute i unwrapped the unit and saw the plethora of wires coming out of it! So in the box it stayed!
After a whingeing phone call to Yamark, he agreed to come and have a look, he duly did so and did not seem at all fazed by the issue. Suffice to say that he gave up his time of approx eight hours over two weekends and left me with a once again fully functioning LC hybrid. Which just left me to make a box to house the unit. It fitted beautifully into the space left by the old CDI.
I am sooooooo grateful and so relieved to Yamark, to have my bike back and working better than ever, i'm over the moon!
This kind of generosity, of time and knowledge is what makes this forum so good and there are some truly fantastic people on it. So thank you, thank you!

He's a great bloke. Basically donated me the engine for the Purple Popsicle (that he rebuilt!).

Yep, top bloke is Mark๐ Clever, good looking, good at golf and fitting bathrooms, and hung like a baby's arm gripping an orange ( his words!!) I'm usually lost after the first paragraph when he starts explaining ignition systems to me๐คช We should have a "Guru/Consultant/Wizard" tag under certain members usernames - Mark would certainly be worthy๐

Thanks chaps, but I don't feel worthy of the praise heaped upon me. Like most on here, I help out when I can. It took me a while to sort out, because - 1) I've never worked on YPVS electrics before 2) It was lovely chatting to Mouse and Dusty 3) The bike is an LC, new LC loom, YPVS engine, TZR250 generator- CDI and PV control box (relocated), with a bespoke servo loom that had unique coloured wires. (I also didn't want to alter the new standard LC loom) 4) I drink too much tea Muttsnuts and Midlifecrisis also helped with questions I had- top fellas And thanks to Mouse for his brilliant hospitality. Dusty made up the bit about the baby's arm gripping an orange , Thanks again lads, Mark
