Hello, I'm from Poland and at first I would like to apologize for my english. In Poland, I bought a partially unlocked Honda CRM 125. Partially, because cdi is original and locked. I heard that in the UK were sold bikes with unlocked cdi. Could you tell me, are they labeled as CI585A or CI585B?

Maybe check the NSR 125 parts fiche, think they used the same engine.NSR had more top-end power I would imagine.

NSR has more electronics than CRM. They are completely different.

Actually, they are very similar.

The CRM is actually very top-ending - meaning that it's not a great dirt bike in a lot of situations. I got a +10 sprocket made up for mine as it was also geared similarly to an NSR.

However, while most of the electronics look the same, they may still have different part numbers, I don't know if this means they were different parts.

The CRM (my model at least) was kickstart only which suggest there may be a couple of changes for that.

Haven't had mine for a long time, so can't advise on the CDI I'm afraid.

Not sure they were officially imported here? They are very rare here.

Most Honda offroaders list as European Direct Sales rather than UK specific - CMSNL may list part numbers.
