Upon entering and exiting the turn, it cuts out a bit, but pulls well up the hill?

Plugcap is 5k Ohm, going to get one with no resistance as a start.

Sounds like a broken, or nearly broken ground wire that is bouncing a bit. locating it may be the hard part.

disconnect the kill button completely first.
check around the coil and its ground and mounting bolts
I had a wire off one of the stator mounts broken one time that was bouncing
check in and around the flywheel just in case too.

I just rebuilt my 87 CR125. The gasket set had two different thicknesses of head gaskets, a thin one and one about twice as thick. I used the thick one because it matched what I took out. I don't know what was stock or why they had two different gaskets.

I ordered a set of eBay and it looks like I will get another thin one.

HOWEVER.

CMSNL has two part numbers, Honda superceedes to the thin one, but I will try and get the thicker one for sure.
