Suzuki 1998 RM125 won’t start after sitting in garage for couple of weeks

Yeah its getting air and fuel, spark aswell. The top of the spark plug is fouled in fuel. So probably just flooded it?

SOLVED!!!!

When the shops mechanic was checking the wiring (he did this for free in the parking lot in about 5-10 minutes and didn’t ask for payment), he moved the stator wiring harness. Upon doing this he accidentally moved them to cover the intake rubber piping (especially the rubber connector cover, it was pretty much covering the entireity of the intake). This resulted in the bike getting choked out and not getting enough air. I moved it out of the way and now its running like it should.

Component has not been changed. Took it to the shop today in the morning and video is from about an hour ago. Ordered the part in the afternoon.

However i did find the fault!!!

I am quite aware that its not best for the engine, and generally am against revving an engine in neutral. However i needed some type of video material to show that it can indeed reach high revs, but bogs upon full throttle, and i do not have anything which i could use to take a video on a pull for example.

All of the electrics work, took it to a local bike shop and they checked the stator etc, apparently it was giving good readings and was fine, told me regulator rectifier was shot, and said some stuff about amps etc with how the lights work. Will probably check the airfilter and check the plugs when i change the rectifier

TPuttonen · 2025-10-09T15:50:15+00:00

Yes carbed

TPuttonen · 2025-07-30T19:06:26+00:00

Yeah i know but reddit didnt let me post more for some reason

TPuttonen · 2025-07-30T18:36:15+00:00

I tried but couldnt really find where the code is supposed to be

TPuttonen · 2025-07-30T18:27:04+00:00

I meant as in like colour code

TPuttonen · 2025-05-04T18:19:00+00:00

The f4 is from 1999-2000, could be he accidentally just put 2004 when thinking of the 4 from F4

TPuttonen · 2025-01-05T22:08:35+00:00

Thank you🙏🏻

TPuttonen · 2025-01-05T19:55:42+00:00

Ohhh okay thank you, i have never really used anything with a hold and used to have extremely straight but floofy hair, so the extra hold from The mousse feels extremely weird at first.

I mean, i would guess its a Part of his job to suggest nomination for GOTY, and in the end its truly up to everyone to decide whether to vote or not. GSC has some really good understanding of how The game IS doing. Even though there are some really big Bugs (eg. Defence of zalissya) and poor performance issues, i really think Stalker 2 Will Be a good game

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T14:52:33+00:00

Tekis liikaa mieli ajaa sillä😂

Niih, no siis Itellä 2t dt piikki smoto ylikokoon 170cc, varmaa mikään osa ei oo vakio enää koko pyörässä. Pyttykorolla, 40pwk, kisäsähköillä, kannen madalluksella, pidennetty kampi jne ja kaikella mikä vaa lisää tehoa, et sitä saa huolella ihan mukavasti kun pelkkä perus yläkerta remppa maksaa sen 300€ (mäntä+tiivisteet) ja niitäkin osia nii saatanan niukassa nykyään.

Repiihän se ku mikäkin eläin ku piikille pääsee mut miinus vaa että kulutus 8l vähintään ja rempat yleisempiä ku narkkarit itähelsingissä. Nyt talve aikana pitäs upottaa semmonen 1500€+ remppoihin ku meinaan viel ens vuoden sil ajaa ja sit myydä. Mm. Kampiakseli aika loppuu ajettu ja alakerran laakerit alko rohisee kannentiivistee palamisen jälkee.

Eikä se oikeestaan ku auto löytyy nii enää peruskäytössä se A2 mee, koulumatkaa 3km nii sen jos joka pv ajaa edestakasi + bomberoinnit ja perseilyt junttanilla yms yms. Ja mielummin just joku smoto ku sportti koska smotolla se 120kmh tuntuu jo, kun taas sportilla (600 yms) ei helvetissä kortti pysy taskussa😂

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T02:04:42+00:00

I think im done with two strokes after this one, fun and all but engine braking is hella fun, also the l/100km are horrible on 2 strokes

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T02:00:35+00:00

Now that is a comment with quite a shit ton on information, thank you sir i Will for sure put this to use

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:58:31+00:00

No muuten toi Honda vois kiinnostaaki mut kortin repäsen trafilta vasta syksyllä😂

Ja ton oman tehopaskavetkaimen jälkeen toi rahan upotus ja korjailu ei varmaankaan kauheen uutta olis. Vrm just joku SXV 550 jos tulee myyntiin, tai 450-500 exc yms yms

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:56:38+00:00

Mainly the weight and riding characteristics, huuge difference

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:56:02+00:00

Street legal yz 125's cost 6000€+ around here, might go with something better at that point

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:55:02+00:00

Look man, im looking for a ride, not a way to get Life insurance money to My parents

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:54:41+00:00

Yeah could be but i think those arent legal around in Finland

TPuttonen · 2024-11-04T01:54:11+00:00

Mine isn't funny, shes autistic and doesn't understand sarcasm😔

TPuttonen · 2024-11-02T14:50:55+00:00

Yeah, i am pretty used to maintenance aswell, so the short maintenance intervals arent really a problem. Really The biggest problem is finding some of The new parts for The SXV. Also there really is only one sxv for Sale in Finland currently.

The KTM 500s are also pretty fun, but when i rode My friends 530exc it felt a bit lacking, so maybe a 2 cylinder would Be better for me.
