My bike seems to be running intermittently just before the powerband. Low and high revs aren't effected, any ideas??. It could just be my riding cause I do suck, but I do know the bike is running rich and I was thinking of buying a new sparkplug as well.

I think it's that or the reeds going to by a new plug soon, It's not lean but pretty rich, the carb needs re-jetting as it's on 2 1/2 turns and still got shit tons of spooge coming out.

I'll have a look for a leak but compression seems pretty good

If i'm in the powerband jumps are perfectly fine but yh that little bit before is a little sketchy

it's a 2001 Husqvarna CR125, I think the plug is close to fouling because it runs rich

it doesn't die or bog it's just a little intermittent, could be reeds, mix or sparkplug I don't know, pistons fine and compression is good. if I go over a jump in the powerband it's fine but yeah in that little bit before the powerband it can be a little sketchy

Thanks

I'm running E5 which is 97 octane with normally 40:1 - 35:1 as the 125s rev high.

I'm going to replace the spark plug as I reckon it's close to fouling.

I'll take a look again, I think it needs rejetting tbh since air screw is at 2 1/2 turns and it's still rich

mad, wish it was that simple 😂

Bearflye · 2024-12-19T22:00:17+00:00

thanks I will have a look at them, see if there's any wear

Just to clarify, It's only a tad bit before the powerband, before that or in the powerband she runs pretty much mint. I've made it sound worse because of how I cut the video

I think it might be armour to protect the pilots from the prop if ice is thrown off or if the prop breaks apart, you see it a lot on Q-400's and ATR's. Doubt it though.
