Title: Yz125 reeds, how do these look?
Post by: Nick on August 08, 2009, 12:35:23 PM

Hey so i took out the reed cage, pretty simple, but the reeds look ok to me, i don't see any gaps, cracks, bends or anything that looks off, they don't look stock either  are they carbon fiber ?
here are the pics.

ok,so i'm guessing the carb needs to be cleaned.
It's bogging down in 5th gear bad to where it almost dies, but then when you slow down it gets up and going again. Lower gears are decent, a little boggy once in a while.
Also I need to change that seal behind the front sprocket cuz it's still leaking.

You could try a compression test to help narrow it down!
