    In the past year i have gotten heavily into biking. I enjoy going off road and attempting wheelies and having fun with my mates on our bikes, and we hope to start a small bike group in Bodmin.
    Sadly at the moment i am bikeless :(
    I hope to be able to start mechanics and learn more about bikes until i can build my own from scratch.

  1. Right, so i should fill it up with 2 stroke oil, replace the exhaust and remap it and it should run fine again?
  2. Could be right. Could a lack of oil be a factor into this?
  3. A while ago the same thing happen'd to the exhaust the muffler came disloged and we had none of the above problems, it went a bit faster and made alot more noise. Thats why im confused
  4. My Gilera RCR 50 has broken, and i don't know how. Recently the exhaust fell off but we welded it back on after a day or 2 without the muffler. THe exhaust has fallen off again and now it wont pull more than 10MPH uphill and 30MPH DOWNHILL!!!!!! IF i pull the clutch in it will cut out and it will not kick start. Can anyone help me Im desperate to fix it so i can get my 125. I know it's not related to a yamaha but i really need help, any help is appreciated THANK YOU!!
  5. Ohhh, so it can only be like, powerful in the dirt if it is weak on road? Well, i may just leave the bike as it its, but change the tyre's. Hmm, talking about plastics, i was going to ask, can i get newer plastics for the DT E.g Yamaha WR plastics for the DT? Because i was going to make it look really flash but if it will just get damaged i may not do that one. Im still tempted by the R125 but i do want to be able to go off road as i will be the only one of my friends without a scrambler, however, i was the only one of my friends with a scrambler when it comes to our 50's. How much should i look to spend on my DT other than the buying costs which could be less than £1000. It's a fully de-restricted one apart from the exhaust so i may get a race pipe for it. Hmm, well i will be mainly using it on road so i may not make it as much of a machine off road as i can. I may just do tyres, pipes, reeds and shocks then.
  6. Well i will probably go for the yammy then, but im going to take both of them for a spin as you said, then see which i prefer. Im not too fussed about the top speed as long as it will last me and can over 80, and wheelies haha! Thank you for the help, i really appreciate it Maybe we can go for a ride out sometime when i get it haha! Recently ive been trying to wheelie my 50, all i can do is go at a crawler speed then dump the clutch and lean back and it just pops, when i try to go into second it drops, any tips?
  7. Thank you Well, my budget will be around £1600ish so what can i do to make the DT be more of an off road machine, without sacrificing my on road capabilities, i really want to learn to do wheelies, my friend said i should get a smaller front sprocket as that will help acceleration. Is this true? :S I reckon i will be going for the DT then. Thank you for your help, even if you may be one sided haha!
  8. Ive also been offered an 09 Yamaha YZF R125 for £1600! ! ! ! ! Not sure as to how they perform and there a relitivly new bike so i was wondering is there many faults with them?
  9. Im really stuck as to what 125 i can get, my friends cousin has a DT for sale thats in very good condition for £1000 and ive read reviews on them and they seem very good, im interested as to what speed they can go, and how good they are for off road use and there pulling power. I have also seen a KMX 125 for sale for about £1250ish, ive read reviews on this bike aswell and they seem to be about the same. Which is more customizable and which can travel a bit nippier. My Gilera RCR 50 is incredibly slow and means im always at the back of our group and struggle up hills an insane ammount It would be nice to get a good 125 so i would really appreciate the help Thank you! ! ! ! ! !
