Found out the problem guys, the ypvs wasn't opening properly. Wasn't turning on either with key, why they messed about with the ypvs for a piston job I don't know, but they re adjusted and cleaned it out, and is back to its tinny 2 stroke sound, swell as the full power the bike had before, that is for all the help everyone, much Appreciated. ~Burgis

It rides like a different bike performance wise, I know. Y old gear ratio and it would be, 25 in 2nd, 38 in 3rd and so on, now I struggle to get 20 out of 2nd, and it pulls away guttless feels as if there's no powerband. know I shouldn't be tearing it still anyway, but the work done shouldn't affect the performance, I thought it would improve it.. the only goodtthing I have gainened is a lot more compression, but other then that its messed up.

The piston and rings overall coated 30pounds, so not a lot, and the bike sounds a lot quieter as if the exhaust has been tampered with. It use to sound very loud and tinny, very similar to a crosser, now it sounds very silent and just completely different overall.

Basicly, my rings went on my Yamaha DTR 125 , took to my local Yamaha dealer and had new piston rings etc put in at a cost. I picked up my bike, noticing it has changed a lot in sound very quiet, and was riding a considerable amount worse, the bike seemed very powerless compared to before I could hear the power band roaring, and now it seems although there is no power,maybe because its quieter and I cannot hear it I don't know.But now I thought when replacing piston and rings, the bike would run and sound a hell of a lot better, and possibly faster. ( Bare in mind I do know I should be wearing it in but still, the bike shouldn't run and sound worse?) Should it, correct me if I'm wrong, all help appreciated thanks.
