I owned a 95' RM25O way back when it was only a couple years old. Of the dozen or so mx bikes I've personally owned and spent some significant time on, the 95 RM250 was the strongest running. It was extremely quick... and it handled like an overloaded fuel tanker with flat tires. Really, it was incredibly vague in it's handling. I always wondered if the 125 version was like that or if it was any better.

You can raise your forks to turn better... lower makes it handle at higher speeds better...higher helps turning and so on....set your sag properly.... there are lots of ways to improve handling if you understand how to set a bike up... yeah some are better or worse...but every bike can be Tuned...

@djmjr77 2 года назад

Changed too many things at once to narrow down. I would bet it had more to do with the clogged pilot jet in the carb. Even with the air leak, if there was spark, gas and compression, it should have at least coughed when you first kicked it. Nice find and save!! Def a nice bike!!!

Seal All will put that carb base manifold gasket back together. Clean it really well, put your Seal All in the split, clean off excess as you close up the splits. Place between vise jaws to keep it both sides parallel. 24 hours its a new gasket taking some critical torque during carb insertion as well as kinetic energy of jumps and every day riding.

Here's the truth, as bitter as it may be: This particular RM125 is a sub $1000 bike, at best, that he got for $1000 that a guy very nearly suckered someone into paying $2500 for. It's not whiny (correct spelling, btw. Whinny is the sound a horse makes. Stay in school.) to vent the frustration caused by the overeager.

@zackk695 Год назад

Has to be the carb. You gas from the tank but that doesn’t mean it makes it to the motor. You have a jet clogged in that carb possibly. A quick way to tell if it’s fuel related is take off the air filter and hold throttle ope and from there shoot carb cleaner inside the carb for one second. Try to start the bike. If it tries to fire then dies it’s fuel related in the carb. If it does not fire then you have something else blocking the gas from getting to the cylinders such as a reed valve on a two stroke. On a 4 stroke it could be the valves in the head keeping it from firing
