    Send your cylinder and head to pro circuit or someone 2-strokey, with 1-2-5 experience. Proper porting will make a huge difference, especially to a guy at your level. 😉 That carb is gonna really pep things up for sure, proper jetting is HUGE on a 125. Also. If you could source some NOS MUGEN parts, especially one of their cylinders, it would make big gains. They had some awesome CR stuff back in the day. Factory parts for the privateer.

    @jeff walker A good way to really wake the bike up is to weld the power valves open. I did it on my cr 250 and the bike was completely different after. The bike was an animal after I did it

    • @loganwright1637
      @loganwright1637 Před 5 lety

      Mike Mcgill Yea, the power valves are kinda useless, it just adjusts the amount of power you get throughout rpm ranges so for example, peak power is a high rpm, when they are welded open you get the most power the bike can have at that certain rpm range.
