[QUOTE="bikepilot, post: 902785, member: 56976"] Frankly, IMHO you are not going to get enough low end power out of a 125 or 144 to be very useable. For example it doesn't really matter if it makes 1/8th or 1/4 of the power you need at low rpm to crest a particular hill or clear a specific jump. A flywheel weight will make the power come on more smoothly and will lessen wheelspin but will not increase bottom end power. I would recommed that you just work on getting more accostomed to the 125 untill you get good at keeping it in rpm band where it makes good power. do not be afraid to slip the clutch a bit if necessary to get the rpm's where they need to be comming out of a corner. for tight woods work it may help to gear down a bit (i.e. a larger rear sprocket). Starting out with a 125 typicaly makes you a good rider, switching to a 250 will make you lazy IMHO. good luck and enjoy:) [/QUOTE]
