Nope, afraid not.

None that are for the layman anyway, follow what everyone else is going to tell you and save your money for a bigger bike and your test mate.

Hope that helps.

A 4-stroke 125cc is not going to be restricted as standard, it's usually only the 2 stroke 125's that can be derestricted.

For the best performance to pound increase your gonna want to take your test and get a larger bike.

Performance...yes
Top speed and acceloration...not really

A race can, rejet, different gearing might help straight line perfomance a little, but only probably by about 5mph and it'll cost a fair bit so its not really worth it.

Just remember that with a 4 stroke 125, you could spend £300 on a race can and some sticky tyres, or you could get your bike test passed and tade in the 125 for a 250 or 400. Now THATS a cost effective way of going faster Laughing Thumbs Up

If you wanted performance, you made the wrong choice in buying a 4 stroke 125.

A 4 stroke 125 is a tool for passing a test, and for commuting on the cheapest budget possible.

You start to modify it in any way, and you go against those principles.
