Those are the Tusk typhoon rotors. Cheaper then the name brands and work great. I'm no pro so these were a no brainer for me
they look pretty good, I just bought wheel set and figured I'd just buy the hardware to have two wheel sets just in case. I was thinking about doing the oversized front brake but I've never been one to use it a lot so don't really know if it's worth it!

As I've gotten faster I've used the front brake a lot more. I put a Galfer 270 rotor kit with steel braided line on my YZ 250 and it made a big difference.

Here's a few things that I've learned: KTM pegs are "plug n play".They fit perfectly on my 07 rm 125..I went with the IMS Pro series pegs(for KTM 125). RFX rear brake lever & gear shifter are from eBay uk. They look and work great. The TM Designworks chain guard and slider look really cool:

I think they fit 98'-'15 KTM, but don't quote me on that. It was a pretty big year span.It was revealed in an rm rebuild of an '06 in Motocross Action. I just put in '07 KTM on IMS website and got the part #. Notice where the peg spring is on the IMS compared to the oem Suzuki.Here's the Amazon link:

MXA Nov. 30th, 2016:

"Pro Pegs, out of the Netherlands, makes a flawless set of titanium footpegs for most makes and models. At 60mm wide and just over 12 ounces for the set, Pro Pegs offer great traction for your feet. Unfortunately, since the 2007 Suzuki RM125 didn’t sell very well, the aftermarket companies didn’t make a lot of accessories for it—and that includes titanium footpegs. Fortunately, KTM footpegs will bolt right on to the RM125. Harry van Lier, owner of Pro-MX Racing and Splitstream, made us aware of the crossover. As a result, we swapped out the archaic stock pegs for a set of beefy Pro Pegs ($268)"

Well thanks to a fellow vital member I was able to solve my carb issue by picking up a used lectron! Unfortunately I'll need a new throttle cable but that's no big deal, also got the correct Ngk spark plug, new emig grips, and new clutch cable.
