12V Electronic Ignition Kit - Vintage Vespa

12V Electronic Ignition Kit for Vintage Vespa. The CDI unit and ignition coil generate the spark that ignites the engine. Designed for Vespa and Vintage Vespa models.

Missing spark, misfiring or difficult starts may point to a faulty CDI or coil. Check that the connector pins (AC or DC CDI) match your wiring harness.

Product details

This 12V electronic ignition kit converts compatible vintage Vespa engines from points to electronic ignition. You get brighter lighting, longer bulb life and easier starting, and you no longer need to adjust the points regularly. A lightweight flywheel in the style of the P-series, paired with a period-style Bakelite CDI and coil set, delivers modern ignition performance while keeping the scooter's classic look.
