Is the v-due engine direct injection or carbs heard they were unreliable

Hi, it has carbs, massive carbs. From memory, I think they are 38mm. Runs an oil pump rather than premix

cool thanks for your fast answer. Did you change something on the front brake or fork?

@stevenwilson9751 2 жыл бұрын

The front brake was fine with braided hose and sintered pads. Forks are a strange setup with one for damping and one for compression. It had a stiffer compression spring fitted and slightly heavier oil in both. They worked ok for road use and the little time it was on track

A note worthy of pointing out, the whole rear shock mount on the frame was cut out and relocated to the centre as the original is off to the right.

Hi, the aluminium was 6061 grade. All spacers, plugs, adapters etc were hand made on my milling machine and lathe. The Zx6r rear shock was used because its fully adjustable, damped well for my style and I had one in my parts bin with a selection of race springs already to hand 😀

Hi mate, there's plenty of 2 strokes for sale here and there but not many "bargains" left as everyone knows what they are worth now. My RS has just been rebuilt as a 325cc so hopefully the BHP will be around 70plus when it gets Dyno'd this weekend..... if your 125 is making 34, keep it and ride it mate! That's useful power for such a lightweight bike and would give a few bigger bikes a good fight 😁

Hi, I can't measure it without taking the tank off etc but it has a removable dual foam filter (from Ramair) that is approx 200mmx150mm and fully sealed to avoid leakage. The filter works very well and when cleaned just the other week, it had caught various bugs, a piece of gravel after I'd had it off track at Donington, and various rubber marbles :) One of the pictures shows the filter and frame setup

Hi, anything is possible with time, money and effort. Probably not a wise decision though as the RS 50 frame isn't as well made as it's bigger brothers. The 125 chassis are cheap enough and well worth thinking about as long as you consider the chain being on the wrong side with standard swinging arm.
