Just got done cutting out the cat and replacing it with 1 1/4" flexible exhaust pipe and 1 1/4" stainless steel band clamps. What a difference! Lots more midrange and doesn't make it much louder. Much more fun to ride. Saves a little weight also. At some point I will have to rejet from a 125 main to a 130 as it is now running a little lean.

No complaints on power delivery, but more exhaust flow and a proper large bore muffler will make it sound like it should. |

I may have found the fix for those of us having issues with the rear brake, I took the rear slider bolt off, and left the lock washer off, and reinstalled with lock-tight, the Lock washer was causing the caliper to not have enough space, removing that lock washer made it work as it should.
PS, the headlight sucks, I'll end up adding some Aux Lighting |

I got a Weize YTX5L-BS for $20. It's rated 80 cold cranking amps. No idea what the original battery is rated at. The Weize completely fills the battery tray- SNUG, and definitely delivering more amps than the original battery. I put it in the new 6speed since it has no kick start :tup: But this engine is 10.5 to 1 compression. It is not surprising that it is a tough push for these little batteries. I just wait out the pausing (on the 5speed), and it has always started when it breaks through TDC. I have used the kick starter on the 5speed, and I am able to start it pretty easily. |

tknj99, I got the flexible exhaust pipe and clamps on E-BAY and cut the pipe before and after the bulge with a 4 1/2" grinder. I did weld on the nut for the heat guard on the flexible pipe so it kind of hides it. I used some sealant to help seal the connections. It really woke it up.

The caliper is mounted off a spacer on the axle, not off the swing arm, and the rotor is mounted off the wheel, so adding the washer by the swing arm doesn't affect the spacing of the caliper, with removing the lock washer from the rear slider pin it allows the caliper to move the thickness of that washer further toward the wheel, which is where it needs additional space, the front slider is made differently, and has the extra clearance already. |

I need a little help. I messed up a few of my rear spoke nipples trying to true my wheel. I’ve been to 3 different local shops trying to get replacement nipples with no luck. All the ones they have are too small. Anyone know what size I need and where to get them?

Tell them the model number. They have the wheels (laced, with hub, bearings and seals) as well. |
