I have an R125 and when accelerating I either end up accelerating slowly ow having high revs and nearly doing a wheelie, any ideas?

And when I change gear I normally change on the redline, is this bad for the bike?

Try slipping the clutch off the line more, get the revs high and let the clutch out from the biting point veryyyy slowly you will feel it going and try roll on the throttle at the same time so you are accelerating but the revs are staying the same. I am the master at this on my 50, beat many boy racers off the line and up to 30ish Cool.

Why a second thread on this topic?

You had loads of help in the newbie section and you still post a second thread asking the same damn thing?

Its not a particularly fast bike at the top end, maybe its not that fast pulling away rather than being down to you?
