    typical tripe & waffle of KB when someones after a plain answer

    Basically CDI ignition produces upto 500v supplied to the primary winding of the coil...averaging around 400v
    secondary winding of the coil is usually 100:1 ratio theoretically producing 40,000v (but only in theory). In the combustion chamber
    5,000 - 10,000v is more than enough.
    Then for perfect spark a lot of maths is involved with spark duration, spark plug gap, mixture ratio, compression ratio etc etc.
    Average ideal voltage is the 5k-10k area for most motorcycle engines
