CG 125 W:1999 - small issues

[Entertwainer]

probably nothing to worry about too much buuuuut,

i've noticed a slight jerk when pootling along (in each gear) almost like the throttle lets off a little. could this be a dirty carb problem? more notcieable in lower gears i.e. 1 & 2.

indicators - need to switch signal on about 5-10 seconds before i normally turn them on - worsened recently in the cold weather. is this just typical CG electricals? or is the relay on its way out (is there only one relay for right/left indicators??)

thats it really.
are these problems? or are they just symptoms of the CG during the colder months....

Relay could be on its way out (most likely), or could be a low voltage issue. However if the rest of the lighiting is fine and you're not getting flat battery issues i'd not worry too much and just swap the relay.

The jerk you describe, could be carburation, however i'd be inclined to check chain tension. If the chain is massively slack it wont be engaging the gears propperly - my H100 usually gives a little jolt after a few seconds of being in said gear as it flicks in, my YBR used to just catapult itself into neutral.

Swap the relay & check the chain tension. Can't give you specs on required relay without a model year unfourtunately.
