What I have read on the german forum these are only fitted to the EUropean bikes. The purpose is to control the ignition in 2nd and 3rd gear at full throttle.
Your CDI, at the LH side behind the cover, probably has 2 connectors.

A picture would be real good.....
And why would the European bikes need an ignition control in 2nd and 3rd gear?
And how would the "box" know whether the bike was IN 2nd and 3rd gear?
And why wouldn't there need to be ignition control in 1st, 4th or 5th?
