Vfr nc 23 on a CBR nc23, will it work?
Hi, I'm new to the forum, but I've been here a few times and found some interesting stuff.
I Have a noob question, will a VFR nc 23 CDI unit work on a CBR nc 23? My CBR unit is shot and I can get a VFR one fairly cheaply, so will it work? Or should I start searching for a nc 23 cdi?
Thanx

A VFR NC23 does not exist.
VFR400s are NC21, 24 and 30
CBR400s are NC23 and NC29
You'll need an NC23 CDI...and am sure someone on here can sort one for you

Why WOULD a vfr cdi work on a cbr is the question you should be asking...

Its a cloned one from Hong Kong. Buy at your own risk. I would be speaking to Graeme France off her if I were you.
I think he is breaking a NC23/29 for spares right now iirc.

So the Cloned ones are Rubbish? How can I get hold of Graeme? Do you know if he would ship the cdi internationally?

It were discussed before - VFR CDI do not work on CBR due different engine and timing... but you can fit and let us know....

NOPE.
VFRs are V4 engines and CBRs are Inline 4 engines.
