Where do we get all this misinformation? Some Honda Helix CDIs were DC some were AC? Really?
Only if you get a non-Honda chinese clone CDI do you need to know if its an AC or DC.
All OEM Honda Helix CDIs were AC. Start the bike, then pull the negative battery cable off. If it is AC, It will continue to run. The pulse generator is giving it AC. If it is DC, it will die. The battery is not giving it DC supply.
