2024 YZ125X build, jetting, and race update!!

[@Randy_Cox]

Cool to see other big people ride the yz125x and say it works great. Bought mine as a practice bike but it is way more capable than people give it credit for.👍

Haha yes sir! I pulled off a second place finish this past weekend even stopping for gas. It's capable for sure. Thanks for watching!!

I agree 125s are a blast had fun at the race

Enjoy seeing these updates! Have had my bike for almost 2 weeks now and love it! Agree the jetting can be fine tuned a bit. Have the NYCG needle coming - thanks for the tips on what you did! I noticed my PV vent hose is dribbling more oil than I expected. Have you noticed any change after your jetting?

[@powersportssteve]

I don't have anything dripping on my bike. I'm using the yamalube oil mixed at 32:1 too. I saw a little soot in the silencer at my first ride with that mix, but not after the race. I ran it a lot harder at the race, so I assume that is the answer. The bike is very crisp overall, and runs just about perfect I would say. I am very, very pleased with this jetting. What is your oil and mix? What's your mixture screw set at?

I’m also running Yamalube 32:1. I’m at 2600’ elevation. Didn’t noticed the oil out the breather until I took my skid plate off in prep for a trans oil change. Have the same skid plate you have, by the way - love it! The PV breather hose runs right into the front of the skid plate, so the oil collected in the plate and wasn’t dripping on the ground. My air screw is 1 1/2 out. I’m hoping leaning out the pilot and the leaner needle will help with more efficient burn on the bottom end. The riding I’ve done so far is more trails, so I haven’t been on the pipe a ton. Did you change your air screw from stock?

@@richiehayhurst8175 you don't even need the JD kit. The bike comes with all of the jets you could possibly need, just need to get a couple of needles to try out and adjust to your conditions, etc. Cheaper option than jd too. Appreciate you watching!!

I have the 2023 yz125 and I am running a 52 pilot and a 175 main, NYDF clip 3. I wouldn't run a main under 170.
