Possible clutch problem?

[QUOTE="O3RM125, post: 1259569, member: 82886"] Yep, I was wishing I had ordered a few more jets lol, dealership is pretty far away from me and Ive been just doing the online thing for parts. Thank you for the second opinion on the clip positon, I was thinking the same.. I did a few searchs here and on google and found quite a bit of 03 rm125 jetting comments, was good reading. Alot of the info was from riders at lower alts, but seems like all had to clean it up down low, and some went rich on the main(maybe modded bikes? I dont recall in the reading, but recall someone running a 490) I picked up a small bottle of h1r because I think that was what I ran in my yz when I raced when I was young, it always burned clean with minor jetting changes(in Socal area).. problem was I couldnt remember for sure if it was mc1, gk1 or h1r :laugh: so I got h1r to start trying out. I enjoy the tuning and tinkering, only worry is it is still sorta an unknown engine to me as far as what its been through. I know its rich, the plug tells that story, it was quite wet. Its not the recommended plug your right, they ask for the the R6918B-8, but its one of those $20 plugs, I checked that out right away when I got the manual becuase I knew what was in it was the same as my late 80s yz80s ran lol..searched on this wonderful site and found that the 8es or 8ev are ok substitutes, so am gonna use those till I get the jetting sorted out. I am buying helmets and gear for my son and I this coming week and should have some left over for possible clutch pieces(:worship: billet :worship: ).. I would have taken it apart already but I dont have the cover gasket(will be in my third order of Suzuki parts lol, just got my second that was $75 yesterday) or a qt. of oil around even at the moment, and I wanted to ride it a little :nod: I probably have less than 15 min on it, about 25 hrs of work and clean up into it already, and about $150 in parts. Ive been further into my old bikes than the clutch, had to replace the case once after a chain broke and gathered up in the front sprocket. I see two major issues thatll cost me a little to fix, the clutch issue and I have a leaking fork seal :yell: I dont think Ill try the seal, I did them on my yz's but those were very basic forks, only a slight preload adj., I will do the clutch and will probably update this thread for ease when I do have questions. The 8-10min ride was a mix of throttle ranges, some putting around, and roughly 6-8 passes wfo, or nearly wfo up through 6th gear.. heres a pic of the fender after, it was all clean before the ride lol.
