You might be able to cobble some electronics together to convert the signal from the points (a switch) to the signal the CDI is looking for.

Maybe, just maybe, it would only take some capacitors, resistors, and inductors.

Sounds like a good time to build your google-fu, someone must have done this before.

A lot of older bikes have electronic ignitions available, I would search that up on google, and contact a couple of the companies that provide them and see if they can offer some advice or maybe even a kit that would point you in the right direction.
