Stankdog has to get the absolute most out of his 125 2-stroke race bikes. On this clip from our 3 hours podcast Stankdog gives us the ultimate 2-stroke race bike build run down!
//
Gared Steinke races f*cking dirtbikes... 2-Stroke dirt bikes to be exact. He is a cult figure in motocross and one of the most universally loved guys on two wheels. I have always wanted to have Gared on the podcast and I am pumped we were able to make it happen. If you don't want to rip a 125 after listening to this podcast we can't be friends.

He is 100% right , I had a 2000 RM 125 in 1999. That year or the year before Suzuki went up from a 36 to a 38 and my friend had a 1998 with the 36 and his had a lot more much needed bottom end. The bigger carbs are supposed to make more mid top but the the other was WAY better. Not sure how it compares to the lectron but I can say his info is correct

@RyanMcIntyre 2 года назад

I'm a two stroke tuner from the 90s, and I can explain the reason for the carb size difference between 125 and 250. It all comes down to engine RPM, The 125 simply Revs higher. Smaller carburetor bore will improve fuel atomization and throttle response at all RPM settings, but larger carburetor bores allow better high RPM horsepower. The reason your 125 ran better with a smaller carburetor was for those reasons.

Thank you for the explanation!!

Great interview, love hearing Stanks tech knowledge and setup, it’s cool to hear someone who knows his bike setup, setup and performance tricks from real world racing, even more respect he can work on them himself, something I think should be a bigger focus of parents with their kids today, when I got my first 2 stroke, my dad was against it, I paid for it, he picked it up while was at school, I was 6 or 7 can’t remember, when I got home I had to unload it from the Ute. I will never forget how stoked I was until my dad said, right now ya got, if ya break it or it breaks down you better be able to fix it, cause no one else will. Initially it took the elation away. But was probably the best dirt bike lesson I ever got. Keep mixin gas and hauling ass Stankdawg, you’re the best 🤘🥇

@jenpsakiscousin4589 2 года назад

I raced in the mid to late 90’s on a yz125. We switched to a PWK, ground our own needles and ran the boyesen reed block. With the rad valve the inlet is round and makes it easy to move the carb either closer or further away from the crank case. Doing that with either a PC or gold series pipe or even stock pipe and moving the timing around you can change the power characteristics a lot. I ran an 89 for years so we did everything we could to make it competitive with the newer KX and CR.

I’m lucky to have met and hung a bit with StankDog, and I can tell you just because he’s a stoner does not mean he doesn’t take it seriously.

@christophercastor6666 2 года назад

Preach! My first BMX bike (MCS Mini) was a handmedown out of a pig pen. My dad had me clean it with a toothbrush and chrome polish, rebuild the bottom bracket, and wheels. A year later I was 2nd in the state in my age bracket. That trend continued through 85cc and it was second nature by the time I moved up and eventually translated to trucks and my own home. Work on your own shit! It makes you appreciate it more, respect it more, and you become more in tune with the bike to sharpen your setup. And when times are tough, you’ll be able to put dinner on the table by turning wrenches. More respect for the guys who can repair their rides, than the ones that can pay me to fix it for them.

I agree the lectron isn’t as good in clean crispyness. But for ease of use it’s sweet. I am more than capable of jetting and have had it dialed. I’ve ran both can enjoy both.

When i moved up to 125cc and 250cc i burnt a clutch out every 5 to 8 days on that cr125. We had clutch kits in metal coffee cans soaking in red line brand oil that looked was a solid yellow color. Plates stacked up in correct order and new heavy springs ready for the old clutch to be pulled out and a new one shoved right in that Hinson basket

Maintenance is key for 125 2strokes. See guys buying expensive parts but have and old spark plug (plus wrong heat level)and don't re-jet the carb for track and weather conditions. Too many do not properly oil the air filter. Too much oil, done not properly clean or dry before applying oil....buy expensive piston but fail to properly maintain the power valve...

@twistymcslide2 Год назад

coming from the automotive world , back into dirt bikes as an adult , id agree with the throttle body swap because of velocity . with velocity there's density , with density and velocity comes a cooler intake charge air temperature, which helps pack more oxygen into the same space , making more power . i build a lot of turbo cars , and often a smaller diameter intake plenum and or intercooler piping makes more power . you want a large exhaust to relieve backpressure but bigger on the intake side doesn't translate to more power. people forget these are air pumps. not fuel pumps . and the more air afforded , and fuel to match that increase in air . you make more power .

Lectron is great for not racing, it's no maintenance no bullshit, gas it up and go.. otherwise you need a jet set to really get it where you want. Otherwise you'd see them everywhere in karting and you don't. Because it's not needed and you want to be able to getting running the way you want where you want especially depending on gearing and track layout and shit.

These 2t's are so much fun, but I'm going to try something new for a new 4t soon, and go with a 2022+ Honda CRF450RX for fun factor - my 300 2t with all of the engine work has the same (maybe a little more) than the Honda 450RX stock, so I welcome the power, and can't wait to build the engine...just wish I was a little more wealthy to afford all of this at one time, but I am surely thankful for what I have right now!!! 💪 👍 👌 Everyone be safe and God bless!

The reason the carb is bigger on the 125 is because the piston is smaller and it draws in less volume on an intake stroke, so the bigger carb gives more gas/air per volume of stroke.

(just my opinion) gypsy should ask tech questions on bike maintence for each pro he interviews...air filter and oil chages dont count....top ends atleast, valve clearances would be a start......bet the stoner stigma gets erased pretty quick.....Stankdog your win is coming mate! 3 papers were killed before this sentence was finsihed:)

Titanium is not stiffer than steel....Not even close. Especially when comparing a bolt of the same size. An M8 bolt made from steel compared to an M8 bolt made from titanium is about half as stiff.

I think he might’ve said what he actually meant to say backwards because I was thinking the same thing

lectron carbs are great the way they ship it to you done. but those lectrons were designed back in 1975 and were revolutionary for the time. but there have been 46 years of development that has gone into stock carbs. a stock carb set right will be just as or even better than a lectron. but that setup is critical.

velocity before volume ! Toomey lessons the Keihin is awesome I ran them on my RG500 my KX's had them stock i learned on them I believe they make an auto metering carb don't they ?.That being said when i was little id the guy Down the Street Joe Smith was a former racer and tuner talking 79-82 period every other weekend Joe would be ripping up and down the street all day on a set of YZ 80s with flat track set ups and huge fucking RV joe was no joke tuner I was 10 yrs old and had XR75 the fist thing Joe did was the lectron carb which were plastic ! and you could see into them float levels and all that but the tuning ability was way way more articulate than anything else. That was the only place i saw Lectrons until the late 90s. all those YZs had number 1 plates

Im doing a complete restoration on my 1990 CR250. Ive got a brand new 38mm keihin air striker carb ($580) and a brand new boysen reed block ($280). Now all I need to do is find a mechanic that knows his shit.
