The condensor is normally there to save the points and suppress radio interference. As the CRM doesn't have points, I am puzzled why there is a condensor at all.

Ah, it looks to be performing the function of a battery, providing a store of electickery for the ignition box to use. I guess one might be handy, then.

Very Honda, that is.

I am pretty sure that any condensor will work. It basically just smoothes the alternator output. You are not going to break anything by trying that one. It might matter which way round you connect it.
