Buying a YX 125 Motor

TominMO · 01-10-2023, 08:37 PM

Hey guys, late next month I'm buying a YX 125cc motor and other stuff from my local dealer. I can buy his Chinese carb with it, but I was wondering if it would be better to go with another one like a Nibbi or something else for this motor. This will go into The Carrot, one of my Honda CT90s. Need your opinions on carbs.

I'd just get a PZ26 or something like that. Out of curiosity, have you considered the YX140? I got one for ~$300 shipped from Alibaba last year. I can send you a link to the store if interested. The only thing with the 140 is they're usually manual clutch.

Thanks franque. I'm buying from my local dealer, who is going to match the price on Amazon, or less. I'm fine with either manual clutch or semi-auto. He has both. He's coming up with a whole package--electronics for batteryless running, carb, exhaust, lighting kit.
