So i would be correct by replacing the power valve seal and bushes to stop the oil leaking out? are there any other seals i would need to potentially replace to stop the oil leak as i can see some oil is coming through the exhaust?? this cant be good but i still need to get another 150-200km out of it before the weekend when i can actually get to fixing it.

Hey. thanks for the advise. I tried to open up/take out the power valve assembly for cleaning but i was unsuccessful. I i'm not too sure how it comes out? please help? Also, there is oil leaking out of the the power valve pulley casing? What oil is this? and what is the cause and solution? I just really want this bike to be running optimally:) Thanks

Hey. Thanks all for the welcome! It seems to be when idling, it wasn't there when I test road the bike but after my ride home of 50km or so the sound developed. Perhaps I had ridden it too hard? Only revved it up to 10500rpm though... Seems to struggle to get past that mark. Also really strugling to brek 120kmph?? Is this normal? I've also noticed that the power valve control seems to be stiff or something because the servo is turning but not really pulling the cable from one side and just creating sleck on the other cable. I tried to pull the cable with some pliers to see if it would budge but it seems to be sitting quite stiff? Any tips on resolving this? This caould be related to the noise and seemingly underpowered ride at the moment?

Hey there. Names Dale, from South Africa where the sun never goes down! I have just purchased myself 1993 TZR 125 R 4JB yesterday. I LOVE IT! It has been customized by the previous owner in the sense that it has no front fairings and looks quite aggressive. I will upload a pic or too soon. On my ride home though i noticed a ticking/knocking noise coming from the motor and i am a little worried. Will be taking it for a service soon. Not sure what it could be. Anyways i have joined this forum to chat and share info and tips on these bikes in hope that i learn more as i am quite enthusiastic about them. Dale OUT!
