Thanks for the replies!!
Do you know what I am thinking about when I say that 'you will have to run higher octane gas' in order for it to perform right?? It might have been milling the head, but im not sure.. I got a little confused when I got into the topic of porting/polishing..
I have noticed that on my stock, 2001 RM 125, that there is NO HIT at all.. Im sure this is good because it ensures smooth riding, but I want some major "jazz" in it.. Will a port & polish job do the trick??
And "ARE" you positive that I WON'T have to run anything oversized, or non stock?? I told my dad about porting/polishing, and he told me that it would cause you to run oversized rings, bigger piston, etc..
But to tell you the truth, I don't think he knows a lot about bikes.. When I first bought my bike ( Oct. 9 / 01 ), he had NO bike engine experience.. So, basically he only has 6 months "begginer" experience, yet, he can tell me how everything works in a bike?? ( Sure he can have basic experience of a 2 stoke engine, but I believe bikes are a little different.. ) Does this make sense to any of you??
And finally, just to double check.. If I get this done, I will still be able to fix my bike the same as before without having to buy oversized pistons ( rings, etc.. ), or special parts???
Thanks,
Dan
