CDI compatibility

Hi all, just after a bit of advice...

Bought a 750 slingshot "Street fighter"a9_9couple of years ago and quickly found out that it had a 750 slabby engine and CDI fitted... Wasn't too bothered as it went well enough other than a knackered clutch which I replaced and was good fun for 12 months....

Anyway long story short the slabby lump smokes it's bag off and is long overdue a rebuild, the 750 slabby flatslide carbs are a pain in the arse and I thought the easiest fix was to buy a blandit 12 lump which I have just done...

Which brings me to cdi's, I can't use a bandit 12 one as I'm led to believe the plug is different, reading on here told me that I could use an 1100 CDI as the rev limit would be right and it uses the same plug as my 1988 750 slingshot loom...but....

My 750 slabby CDI that I already have has a lower rev limit than the later 750's so couldn't I just use that? Would it be compatible with the bandit 12 lump? Or would I have to swap pickups etc, I want to just bolt the engine in and find a set of suitable carbs really, don't really fancy chopping the loom about at this stage..

Sorry it's a long winded post but thanks for looking in any case (y)
