...read mate, its your own thread
i sorted that issue i went up a tooth and got a race pipe but i have a new issue i could reach 55-60 easy before now it only does it when it wants to so im thinking its the clutch but im really not sure at all?
From what you said there you got a mesed up exhaust system made up out of a Giannelli RS50 Pipe and a RS125 Silencer so that might be one isue, and did you Rejet it for that also? 86 mainjet wont do with that RS125 end can... not enough back presure so its trowing unburned feul into the exhaust.
The other can be that the clutch is worn out, oth the springs are way to weak but in that case the bike should be reving while nothing is happening wen you shift into 5th gear or 6th gear especaily.
doing my rejet today going from 63 to 68 i tryed a 75 that was making it bogg badley
Did you bother before fitting the pipe to check it wasnt blocked, in anycase any used pipe i clean/burn out like i described many times before just to make sure its not gonna give me trouble in the near future.
nah its clean straight throught no real build up at all
Seriously, mixing silencers or messing with them is still a really bad idea, hate to disapoint you buit if you think you gain power by removing the insides from a silencer on a 2 stroke, or fiting a 125cc silencer your not, your actualy loosing power, easly a few HP even.
did i ever say i was gaining any speed by using a 125 silencer no :/ dont treat me like a idiot patrick cause im not
Well your the one whose complaining about it bogging down now and not pulling in 5th gear... im telling you what might be causing that isue.
yes i understand that but ur saying that i used that end can so i would gain speed when i never said that at all thats what im talking about but any hows back on topic my end can does get a bit black and wet so im gonna try and get hold of a arrow end can or gianelli end can see if it makes a difference
Ok ive got 12/51 gearing which is standard ive got a front gianneli pipe with a arrow end can and my engine is totally stock but im only able to get 40 most of the time on a flat its really annoying i upjetted to a 68 from the stock 63 and my end can was really really ! hot so i got worried and took it out and put the stock 63 back in any ideas what could be making my bike sit at 40 all the time and making my 5th and 6th gear do nothing if i go from 4th to 5th my bike slows downn? u can hear the revs drop and the speed slowly goes down aswell its proper head doing
whats the point when the bikes going in a couple of months i just want it running sweet for when i sell it thats all ive got a rs125 poggiali rep coming soon for £1,000 really good condition for a 2000 model
