Big Gun CDI Unit for the XR650R

There are several CDI units which can be swapped onto the XR650R for improved performance. Big Gun makes one for around $120 called the Over Rev. Like the others it advances the timing slightly and raises the rev limiter.

Another option – and potentially cheaper is swapping an XR400R CDI into the XR650R.

There is also a Procom CDI for the XR650R.
