I had that thought when I first read that.
A CDI ignition might give you a nice whack and sudden pull-in on the coil, but its very short duration. so might not have enough time to move the mech bits.
Conventional ignitions work on magnetic decelerative techniques - they build the field up slow, then collapse them suddenly - its the rapid magnetic flux *change* that generates the spark.
In this case however, you want a constant sustained static field strength to hold your clutch in, the dump the field as quickly as possible.
Perhaps If you want to get really tricky, you could H-Bridge it and reverse the polarity into the coils, that should help push them apart and disengage quicker.
*edit* oops, sorry if I seem to be 3 messages behind. I started writing a reply, then wandered off, came back and finished it then saw that there had been intervening posts. _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people
