That's what I had figured, Looks like a fun bike. Then again I don't know all the work that goes on to make an AF so retail might be worth it.NeWskoolmxer wrote: Mean machine, If they didn't charge sooooo much.

I see, An FI 125 in a modern 250f frame! That's gonna be a bad ass bike. What sort of FI are you using a kit or adapting one from another bike?AJ wrote: well, the cost is driven by assembling any new 2 stroke engine from scratch /from new parts.
add in a new bikes cost.. and the other parts to convert.
The real news is we are looking into FI for this model
it has a carb currently, but the FI option should be soon.

Most tuners agree.
So if i'm building the engine from new parts anyway, why not start with the engine, that later year CR 125's were trying to replicate?
Why would you not use the engine Honda sells to kart racers? Is there something different about the configuration?AJ wrote: well, the cost is driven by assembling any new 2 stroke engine from scratch /from new parts.

Empty a bag of skittles into the toilet and then flush. It's like watching a five second long nascar race.
Everyone and their brother who ran Hondas in the 90s did that. I know we did.burn1986 wrote: I know Tallon Vohland used a 95 cylinder on his FMF CR when he raced the series 99? 00?

the cart racers prefer the same engine the moto guys do, so thats a yes and no answer..NeWskoolmxer wrote: That's what I had figured, Looks like a fun bike. Then again I don't know all the work that goes on to make an AF so retail might be worth it.
