Hello people!

Just bought a perfect example of a dr125r just got a minor problem with I believe the carb-ill explain in a little detail.

Pulls from standstill up to 9000ish rpm and then I get bogging and stuttering, noticed it more today when I took her out on some busy roads.

Only bought it Friday night

Just wondering if anyone has any advice or suggestion?

Bike is fully derestricted with a full dep exhaust and snorkel removed, previous owner says he got carb jetted up in a garage but I don't believe him.

Any ideas what jet she should have in?

Cheers

Ken

Move the needle clip in the carb down 1 notch = more fuel for top speed running.

Airhead ru shure about the 240 stock seemes to me someone had a bad melt down with a 210 stock jet??

They did increase the jet size as standard from 210 to 240 from 1997 onwards, starting with the fist 4BL model. They then changed it back in 2004/05 with the first DT125RE. Back to 210. I'm guessing that was because of how restrictive te exhaust was with all the CAT. If you've got a DEP on I'd start on a 250 and work down if you need to.

As long as the plug is sparking well, it's working. Changing it will be a waste of time/money if its working. You'll want to do a plug chop and see what the mixture is like. If it's running lean then you'll have a good chance of holeing the piston and ending up needing a full engine rebuild. If it's running rich then it will not be performing as well as it could and you may foul the plug.

Just been quoted £15 for carb setup by a shop which specialise in mx 2t bikes so I'm happy about that!

I do think the plug is being fouled so am just gonna bang it in the shop
