I have a 76 xs650 with a Hughes hand built Cdi system. I am not getting a spark and frankly don't really care for the appearance of this system (too many parts for my old school taste) instead of wasting time in trying to solve the no spark issue with this system, I was thinking about eliminating the Hughes CDI system from my bike and going with a Morris Magneto ( I like the old school clean look )...with the Morris Magneto my understanding is you simply attach it to the bike connect the spark plugs and then simply kick start the bike...no ignition key or battery is needed ...is this true ?
