    The videos I've watched of Kyle on his have been more fast paced flowy type stuff so far. He is trying all sorts of carb options and different ones. You put yours through a little bit more difficult exercises right out of the gate and its awesome. I totally dig your videos the most and after this video I would buy one to ride around here. His videos have not made me think man I need that bike yet.

    what a great ride! The 125s are a blast especially in the fast flowy stuff. you could probably feel that blubbery throttle response around mid throttle that i was hearing. That's the issue i could never tune out of the mikuni, even after dozens of jet changes. Keihin clears that right up.

    • @highlandcycles
      @highlandcycles  3 роки тому

      Yeah. I changed a little more and got it a little better but I’m sure I’ll go that route. I have a Kehin at the shop.

    Man! I wish I was there that day. I just bought a GPX 2 stroke bike and loved all those clay hills. I also need to stop by you shop to pick up one of your free guides for Peach valley. I know I would love for a shop like yours to go through the GPX and make that thing run like it's supposed to...because my mechanic father didn't pass on any knowledge and figuring out the jetting is driving my nuts!
    I'm East of you guys, near Gunnison, and won't be able to ride my area for a few more months.

    Not "completely stock" ... You have a Highland Cycles logo on the number plate... .that makes a difference 😉
    Many of the channels I follow are running these small bore 2T bikes...Everyone says they are fun but in our New England terrain, at my weight and with my "lugger" riding style I'd never get along with one as a regular ride.

After I change carb and change squish in head the troubles were gone! Only once or twice I’ve had change main jet because of ambient temperature.
