Thank you for watching Tom Did It.
In this Part 2 I complete some road side tuning on my Aprilia RS 125. This Dellorto PHBH28 carburettor comes standard on the later model of Aprilia RS 125.
My current Dellorto PHBH28 SETTINGS are:
Fuel screw - 2 3/4 turns out.
Needle - 2nd clip from top.
My current Dellorto PHBH28 JETS are:
Pilot jet - 60.
Emulsion Tube - B40.
Needle shape - X2.
Mixer tube - BN266.
Main jet - 125.
Float needle - 250.
Choke jet - 70.
Thanks again, Tom Did It.

I have also had people stopping to check if i'm ok when I had standing on the roadside for adjusting carbs! It's a good thing of course, there is still some hope for humanity :) And I have been taught for about 30 years that you count needle position from bottom and up, and I think it says the same in Dellorto's documentation. So it's a good thing that you wrote that you count from top so people cant get confused. I'm currently fixing a friends RS and this video was interesting for me to get some settings to start of with. But I live in sweden so climate differs a bit I think. But the bike has gone from undrivable to be pretty much as yours is in this video. Last 125cc 2-stroke I drove was a RD125 many years ago, so testing the RS was fun. Biggest difference is no doubt the handling and brakes! It's like night and day :) No wobble and sway here :)

Thank you for the lessons! Now I'm mad at the algorithm for recommending this to me only after I took my new to me 1986 Garelli 125GTA (my first ever 2-stroke, a bike that had sat for years, just 1600km on the clock) for a ride, only to kill the engine in 100km because I didn't do a proper check of the shitty rubber between the carb and engine...it had cracked and killed the engine. No replacement cylinder and piston to be found anywhere. And because I was not aware of the symptoms of an air leak there, nor the consequences. 😢 At least now I know. I hope others see it and educate themselves before they kill their bike like I killed mine. Cheers!

Tsvetan, thanks for leaving a message. I had to Google this bike. It looks fantastic, and what a great find with only 1600km on the clock! That’s bad news about the air leak my friend. It’s a common problem with old bikes, regardless of the mileage, the rubbers seals throughout the bike start to harden and deteriorate. As I found with my low mileage 2010 Aprilia, the engine is not mechanically worn out, but the seals need replacing. Not sure what to suggest with your Garelli…. Is it badly damaged? Bent rod, piston exploded, scared barrel? Good luck 🤞 finding the parts Tom

@@tomdidit4216 Both piston and the nikasil surface of the cylinder are scratched. The spark plug was melted. I'm told there's a machine shop a couple of hours from me that specialises in this sort of engine repairs. Cylinder machining and matching pistons. I hope they both can and will agree to rebuild it! I saw the bike and immediately loved it so I hope I can revive it. Those 100km before its motor seized were a great and very different experience from my 650 Transalp, '19 S1000R and other 4-stroke bikes I've been on. Cheers! Update: They can't fix a cylinder with ports as the ones on our 2-atrokes so I'm stuck until I find new parts. 😢

@tomdidit4216
@tomdidit4216 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Martin. Thank you for your comment. My Aprilia work shop manual recommends 8,9 or 10. I believe the 10ES is the coldest operating plug and is usually used for racing. As they burn colder, they are great constant wide open throttle conditions. As the plug number decreases 9,8 they operate a bit warmer, with 8 being the warmest recommended plug (according to the manual) I found the 9 is fairly cheap and works best for me. If your bike runs best with a BR10ES, continue to use it👍. Thanks again for your comment and for watching. Tom

I once tried a 128 main jet however it caused my bike to run too rich, bog and drip oil out of the exhaust. Maybe try the 125 main jet and see how you go.👍

Hi there Biconnecc. In my case, the stuttering around the middle RPM was caused by a rich condition. I was able to fix this by moving the C-clip on the needle up a notch.

Hi Jonathan. No need to change the spark plug with each carb adjustment. I use the same spark plug when tuning the pilot and needle circuit. I only use a new plug on the main jet (plug chop). I believe the BR10iex plug is a premium racing plug that will give you a good strong spark. Continue to use it if your bike runs well and it suits your adjusted squish band. Happy riding mate, and thanks for your comment. Tom.

hi tom i cant figure out my carb its running lean, its stuttering at around 6k rpm then it wont rev past 8k i think there is a problem with my powervalve and my air to fuel mixture i just installed new reeds hoping that it would fix my issues but didnt! do u think it could be a vacuum leak i dont want to ride my bike because im worried about a siezure im gonna try messing around with some different jets i am running a pipercross airfilter with the box with the snorkel still in stock exhaust and boyesen dual stage reeds im just praying that i havent screwed my engine up! any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi there. This is strange… Has the bike been running ok and suddenly started playing up?? I’d get the power valve operational. If it is stuck in the closed position, it could alter the port timing and cause a restriction. Then I’d be cleaning the carb and restore to standard jetting. Other than that, it’s hard to diagnose a fault without having a look. Fingers crossed you’ll sort it mate Cheers

I would guess you have too big main jet, buy a set and check each. Normally in the unlocked version main jet should be 128

Hi Tom, just recently purchased a rs125 when revving the bike I’m noticing a vibration coming up through the petrol tank/handlebars any tips on what this could be? I was told engine was rebuilt only 300 miles ago? Thanks Andy in the UK 🇬🇧

Greetings Andy. These bike do tend to vibrate a bit more than modern 4 strokes. Excessive vibration could be one of many things…. You mention the engine has been recently rebuilt - I’d suggest checking the engine bolts are tight. Worst case, the bottom end may be worn out?? Otherwise, I’d have the mechanic check it over. Good luck 🤞!! Tom

@@tomdidit4216 Thanks for your reply Tom, yesterday was the first time I have properly had the bike ticking over, it seemed quite sweet, but things like the air box and the petrol tank were very loose which I tightened up, I’ve been told the bikes been in storage for around 8 years before being recommissioned maybe everything is a bit rustic? next week is the week where I’ll be riding the bike properly so I’m going to see how it is out on the road, I’m going to have another check over today and see if the engine bolts are tight as you say. Many Thanks Tom

Hi Tom, So just a quick one what controls our full throttle position so I feel as tho the bikes not getting enough fuel after around 7.5k and I’m relying on the powervalve but I can feel a struggle between 6-8k like on your video here when you pull the throttle back your bike takes off I can see a difference for sure because round town under 6k the bike is fine but when I want to open it up it’s like it’s struggling for fuel and I’ve noticed that mine won’t even go into the red limit where as I’ve seen some Ed’s rev to 12-13k but mine kinda won’t go past 11k? I have fitted a new air filter recently but a put a 128 main jet in to try and compensate for the bigger air intake? Just wondering if you have any thoughts Cheers pal

Hi Piw You have got me thinking….. A premix RS would be awesome. And it will swap out the crappy standard carb- which I think is the weak link on these bikes (fuel emissions)

Greetings from Australia, Piw. The later Aprilia bikes (like mine) came with a 28mm carb. The earlier rounded model of RS bike came with a larger 34mm carb. According to Aprilia forums the 34mm carb is the way to go as it adds power throughout the rev range👍 It seems the older bikes were not as restricted as the newer bikes.
