If the 327 has the grunt of a carb'd 300, perhaps that would explain the plus 27cc. Yet will be smooth as butta', like the TBI's. Kawi really needs to not have the MX version need re-flash updates for an aggressive response. Although it's been reported that spicier jetting makes the Beetah 350 more tiring. Anyway, there needs to be...

In reality I don't need a time machine, I need $31,000'. That's what the truck in the picture recently sold for. The chances of me getting a time machine or spending 31K on a 44 year old mini truck are about the same 😐😄 Too bad Toyota didn't just keep pumping those out like the CG160 in the other thread.. I feel the same about my 2000 Tundra that just past smog again with 366,097 miles.

Original brake pads and battery pack 290k miles on 2012 Camry Hybrid! Never been in for a repair. The long game is how you get value out the hybrid premium pricing.

You can change the shock damping characteristic to match the new linkage, assuming it's in the same ballpark as the original linkage. Glad it worked out.

The swingarm is an exact fit. Winning If not the same shock link geo, with a suspension servicing, I'll get the correct shim stack done for this 05 linkage, if necessary..

Yup, the perforation holes are angled as to create a vortex and the physics of the vortex creates a cooler core temp. My 200SX ran smoothest at 32:1. I've come across two 125 riders that said the abrupt character at the crack was too aggressive for them. This was the meter replacement block version, not the more potent Super X...

+1 for STIC, as I understand it the holes in the emulsion tube get the mixture spinning up past the needle which really helps vaporisation. I know five bikes running STIC 150s and 250s and they all got the same excellent results across the rev range, also, they run cooler. Hard to believe I know.. STIC likes the viscosity of 40:1 (Castor 927).

The swingarm with its shock link was at a machinist shop for repair and the dang place burnt down from a transformer fire. If it is wrong at the pivot, I will hit the guy up for trimming things down. The 125 shock clevis fits the 05 shock link just received. Appreciate your input.

The STIC being an alternative to a big-bore and/or stroker. Intuitively, carbs are simply not seen as offering significant power gains for small engines. Hard to imagine how a carb could extract more power without altering anything within an engine. Especially in the case of a 40mm carb on a 125 at low rpm vacuum signal. So, how to get...

Got this 10 years ago out of Utah...after this picture in the garage, I pulled off the spoke skins! Rode it for a year but had bad sciatica and had a hard time with the high kickstarter. Hated to sell it because it worked really well. Mid 90s motor, 295cc big bore kit, and 2007 KXF frame. One of the strongest running bikes I have ridden in close to 50 years of riding. Not all conversions went unridden!

I've rolled the dice on an 04 KX 250F swingarm and 05 RMZ shock link. $110! The design looks the exact same, where as after 06 the design is obviously different. The KX250 swingarms are a rare commodity. Fingers crossed

Save some serious coin and install a big-bore/stroker alternative, the STIC Super X PWK 38/40mm carb. Run everything stock. Yeah, it isn't a sick race build from an elite tuner, but it'll provide a broader and more versatile powerband. Rich Taylor on a otherwise stock CR250 test bike got his only SX main holeshot with a less potent 90's version...

Simply install the STIC Super X PWK 38/40mm. @traktor built a $4k TC125 for his boys and the boys and their race buddies always chose to ride/preferred the STIC carb'd 2nd TC125. Nothing will pull harder from bottom to top. I know a dad that installed the Super X on his sons 125SX with with only head work and a...
