    A diodes voltage rating is its maximum operating voltage (600 volt diodes with work with 12 volts, 12 volt diodes, if there is such a thing, will not work at 600 volts) . I would think that any voltage rating over 200 would work for anything on the XS11 other than the secondary coil voltages going to the spark plugs.
