the bike would be a 01 cr125.i live in va and temps around here right now are ranging between 30's and 50's. these are the components i was considering ordering:6BEG20-71 needle,40 pilot,380 main.would this be a good baseline to start with?i haven't ridden in awhile but i remember the bike had an off idle bog as in if i would let it drop down to really low rpm's then whack the throttle wide open it would want to bog and die unless i backed off. i couldn't get rid of it without turning the air screw almost all the way in,then everywhere else in the band would be to rich and the bike would blubber badly not to mention spewing oil all over my swingarm and rear fender.my buddy that i bought the bike from told me the head of the motor had been cut to increase compression,just curious but what area's of the power would this most likely effect?any negative effects from it?i run 93 pump gas and it doesn't seem to ping to me although i really dont know for sure what a 2 stroke that is pinging sounds like.the piston doesn't have any marks on it as i have read on here that would have been from detonation,the whole crown i black.i ordered a new piston and ring from service honda and will be installing those monday afternoon.jetting is stock as far as i know.also whats the best way to break in the rebuilt top end?sorry for the long post,any input will be appreciated,thanks :ride:
