They can be repaired as its usually the caps that burn out. Have a look on here or on the banditalley.net site as there was a guy who rebuilt one with pictures. If you get a new one came i get the knackered one off ya as id like to have a go at a repair.

What spec capacitors did you replace it with? What ampage rating were they as anything upwards of 10amp should be fine unless it is something else that went pop

Ive put you a link to the banditalley site and there's loads of info about cdi repairs by 'PitterB4'. I know its a different bike but close enough to give good info.

Try Kev at Fastline in Preston. I know they've broke loads of Gixer 400 lookin at the amount of bodywork in there for them! not sure about the GK73A but worth a phone call! number is 01772902600

Regards
Gary
