I just got raped by a CG125

For a CG rider to take on an NSR at the lights, he (or she) must either know a bit about extracting performance from their bike, or just be willing to take anything on.

Not to say there's anything wrong with CG's, I've had one to 65 on a damp dual carriageway myself.

I know the reason for this.

Restricted NS125s are shit.

I had one. My friend on a suzuki gz125 marauder could get off the lights quicker. He could even lift the front wheel in the process, and my NS wouldn't really.

NS = shit.

Has anyone ever wheelied the NS125R succesfully?

I have derestricted mine in the exhaust now and it is much quicker but i still can't get it to wheely. I've been sitting on the back seat revvin the tits out of it and then just letting the clutch out quickly and it only just jumps up a couple of inches.

i was thinking of getting one of these for it

what do you think?

I got a size 112 and a 114 jet for it from eurocarb which cost me just under a tenner so that i can re-jet the carb for the new filter.

What can i do for low end power, will the air filter help. It just crawls to 7500rpm and then takes off.

I could get mine to wheelie, by doing what you said you done. It was quite high but they weren't exactly long.

A power filter should give you a boost and a little more low end power, just make sure its jetted properly. It'd be even better if you could get your mitts on a bigger carb.

Personally I keep my right foot about half an inch above the brake lever and have yet to accidentally press it since the first day I got it. I keep my left foot tucked under the gear lever unless I'm going on a long ride and I'm not going to need to shift of brake soon and my arches/heels are getting achey. At that point they like to rest with toes on pegs for a minute before getting back to business.

Not endorsing it, I just do it.

It is better not to keep your foot over the back brake, or sticking out like pigeon feet. It is comfier and you're in a safer riding position as with them sticking out sideways you could clip the ground with your feet in corners.

Any bike can do a wheelie. Rev it to the red line in first whilst going very very slow like walking pace and then drop the clutch! Any bike the front will lift, be it inches for seconds it is still lifting.

And to get your bike to go faster get one of these, a racing high performance power band it'll make your bike feel faster!

Yeah i might get one of those powerband thingies.............NOT

How stupid can people really be, this is why scams on ebay are becoming more common because people are gullable and have too much money.

I think i'll just stick with the air filter thanks, i might get a flag on a pole and tie it to the back of my bike, like the ones that go on the kids trolleys in the supermarket, that might make it look like it's going faster.

It is going a little faster now anyway, i got a new sparkplug and the engine idle speed jumped from 1400rpm to 1600rpm, it lost about 5mph and increased the acceleration time, so i adjusted the carb today and it is flying again.

You just need to lower the brake pedal. Undo the securing bolt, prise it apart with a flat blade screwdriver, move it one spline down, and it's sorted. Still there, but not in the way.
But remember, racing people from the lights is illegal, antisocial and wrong......... If you get beaten.
