[QUOTE="Dogman5, post: 702406, member: 43522"] Well, mini thumper trail bikes like the TTR/XR/KLX/DZR really don't respond to aftermarket parts as well as your probably thinking they will, like 2-stroke or 4-stroke MX bikes. Things like aftermarket exhaust systems (ie: FMF Powercore 4 for the ttr) will increase 95% the sound of the bike, and maybe 5% powerwise. A friend of mine tried one on his XR 100 and it does hardly anything to help the power of the bike. Just louder. If you want the bike to sound cooler, you can remove the baffle from the end of the muffler and remove the spark arrestor peice, and the bike will sound louder, almost like a 4-stroke motocross bike. Adding a new exhaust, new air filter, tuning the carb, etc will make minimal differences. Having the bike bored would be the best increase in performance though, but then you are looking at a very large amount of money. If you want the bike to last for a couple of years, my advice wud be to go for a 2 stroke motocross bike. they are inexpensive, have suspension made for jumping (ttrs are NOT ment for jumping or riding motocross), are lighter, more fun to ride, and if you would compare lets say a TTR-125 and a YZ-85, the YZ will be more than twice as powerful every way you look at it. just a suggestion if you are looking to keep the bike for a long period of time, that would be the way to go. so at least look into it, and give it extreme consideration since the last thing your going to want is a ttr-125 that your going to outgrow its power quickly and wish you wud have gone with a two stroke!
