Yer the postie bike change over from points to cdi in about 1981 used a setup that should fit.
The pickup was up in the points cover and used the points advance setup.

 This being the non step-thru type agi/postie Honda you are inquiring about I believe? 
CT125 points to CDI. A lot of work... Like one engine design has the charge circuit hardware in the sump oil like the older SL125 and the other (CDI) not..... Easiest way/fix is to find a  complete post 1979 CT125 engine and just bolt it in. Been there and done both. Tim754

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
