hi returning back to bikes from many years off and due to hardship just bought a mates dog of a skyjet 125 off him ....now ive done a bit of work on this bike before when it was running ie: new chain n sprocket,rear shock ,new switch gear .....then it wont start ....i was thinking of binning the naff engine and using maybe a Honda or the better known make of engine but very unsure what would be a straight swap after a little time wanting to get a big bore kit n the likes to give it a bit more poke .....any ideas chaps ?.....thanks tim

ohh for gotto say the shop were it was took said the carb wasnt opening or closing and that was the problem ( we all know shops make a drama saying bikes need more work than they do )

probably a honda cg125 engine, that is what most of the copies are based on

check for sidestand cutout switch,it may have been bypassed or cut out of circuit,check the engine and its coil/genny system as different combinations need different wiring looms and switchgear.
