Rickyisms Liked a reply to forum topic 2019 125SX High Compression Head or Get KTM 150 kit

I have a built 125 and a stock 150 that are both more moto geared and have raced both in a couple off-road championships. Our trails here are 60 percent open and 40 percent tight. I’ll take the 125 (even in stock form) over the 150 any day. The benefit of the top end the 125 gives you in the open sections trumps the bottom end you get from the 150, I find myself just having to be a hair more conscious of my gear selection and clutch work in the tight stuff with the 125.

This is more of a curiosity post: I have ran AJ’s spec on 2018 KTM 250sx and a 2019 KTM 125sx with great results using Amsoil Dominator 50:1 (per oil manufacturer spec)with 93 ethanol free pump gas due to the low flashpoint and clean burn. Question is what’s everyone else running for fuel combo? I ride with my son a...

Just to add to this- if you want an easier way to play with your power valve setting prior to fine tuning the jetting based on the “hit”- check out Kreft Powerdial 3.0 it makes this adjustment doable by hand. I use it on all my bikes. Great if you bounce between track and trail

You should really adjust the power valve before you make any more changes as it will affect the jetting. I just use a flat blade screwdriver to adjust them. After getting that set if you still have a bog swap out the jetting. FGR's small bore specs. are pretty spot on.

You can go with the 5.5 slide setup if you’d like as well. I’ve run the 5.75 slide in the upper 30’s and needed to move the clip on the needle one position and put one side bigger pilot in it.

No more heavy clutching off the bottom out of turns like the choke is on, no more lag, just clean and linear power throughout!!! This is...

Not sure if you need to keep your bike stock. But when my son had a yz65, I put in a V-Force 4 (I think) reed valve in, and it helped that bike a ton. Also adjusted the jetting accordingly.

Am going thru a 2018 YZ65 I picked up. Doing a frame up overhaul. Prior to disassembly the bike had similar bog off the bottom but is a ripper mid-top. My questions are: Where are you located (elevation/avg temps.) and what is your fuel/premix configuration. I’ve talked to dads at the track and they say running T2 cleans up the...

You can waste your time with that like many other have or you can get the slide and fix the problem. That’s the key to all of this. It’s a night and day difference over the JD kit.

I have 2018 and bought the Jd jet kit, also agree it was garbage. The JD Jet Block kit is diff. It solves the pilot circuit and air screw issues that plague the TMX carb. As for jetting see the opening page for details. But from what I’ve gathered in this forum the bulk of the jetting is solved with...

Went back to stock silencer to get the turbinecore out of the equation. I will try the other needle or use a shim and see what happens. This thing must be really picky, like a woman.

You could just run T2 and not mess with mixing. The extra oil in it makes up for the oxygen content instead of having to richen the jetting up.
