> [@pwtmxracing](#): > > i dont know about that a 93 -97 cr 125 was a monster i know the 125 u are talking about is a little older but i had a 97 cr 125 (mike winslow race prepped ofcourse) and tat thing would fly when i used to race 125c and get runover in the first turn i used to love blowing by thoes little bastards on that old peice of shit … but anyway the problem with thoes eightys bikes is the goddamn suspension … :dunno: and if u want bottom end buy a thumper oh i know all about the 90s CRs…i didnt mean those. i had a 97 YZ that was super fast and we rode w/ a kid that had a modded 93 CR and it hung right w/ mine. i meant more like the 80s 125s. thanks for the compliments on the RM. ---

> [@BlueMeanieTSi](#): > > something stock sized i’m assuming 13tooth front is what i need it’s 11 tooth i might be wrong but its prob 13-51. the 87s were 13 up front, so i would think thats what yours is too. as far as the front, u r gonna want to stick w/ the stock tooth size. if u want to mess w/ the gearing, then go up or down in the back. for the power output of that bike, u dont want to stray too much from stock. ---

yeah it’s def geared low in the front, rear might be stock for all i know, i want to stay stock with it…btw i fixed the bogging problem, i turned the screw on the side of the carb (i was told it was the jet but i was told you can’t adjust them either) and she picked up nicely, was runnin a bit rich ---

> [@smokeyburnouts](#): > > ya, just keep at it. sometimes jetting is a bitch. the reeds usually help from idle through the low-end of the power. if its bogging anything after that its your needle or pilot and if its mid-top then its the main. if u continue to have problems PM eurodad, he knows more about it than i do…he might have some tips. the pilot jet and air screw are at the very bottom then the the needle is in the middle and over laps the bottom and top. the main jet is around 3/4to 7/8 and up. ---

the main jet is threaded and has a spring that’s where u adjust it, focker was waaay too rich ---

> [@BlueMeanieTSi](#): > > well i would understand that but it actually runs good if u stay in power…soon as u let off and get back on it it’s like the plug is foulded up (no power at all won’tgo up a hill in 1st) then pull the clutch in, revv it a few times, take off…works ok make sure the air screw is set right. if it is you might need to leaner pilot jet. ---

the air screw as in the idle screw? if so you turn the choke. i can only find 1 jet in this carb there is no way to get to anything else in it ---

> [@BlueMeanieTSi](#): > > the main jet is threaded and has a spring that’s where u adjust it, focker was waaay too rich that sounds like the air screw. set it around 2 1/2 turns out to start. after you start the bike set the idle or just turn the throttle slightly till it idles. now turn your airscrew out slowly (out leans it out). you want to get the highest idle. if you have to turn it out more than say 4 turns then it would be a good idea to use a leaner pilot jet. ---

the only thing you can turn (screw wise) on this carb is the choke and what i thought was the main jet brass piece threaded on the end, spring and groove in it for a screwdriver. there’s nothing else on this carb ---
