    Yeah, but I gotta ride it a little first. Maybe a graphics kit in the mean time.....

    Always carry a couple extra plugs with you, it's the nature of the beast to foul them.

    Now get to work on street plating that thing
    Clean? A motorcycle? Blasphemy!

    My new toy

    It looks like an NGK iridium that was in there, (C or B)R9EIX?

    I'm a fan of iridiums, but I prefer the Denso's. It's probably the same plug, but they do seem to last forever and foul less then regular plugs.

    My YZ is still on the OE plug. Stock jetting & biodegradeable Bel-Ray H1R @ 32:1 -- no spooge.

    I may change plugs in the future, but for now while I get used to the bike and it's manners I'll use the stock BR9ES.

    Picked up a fresh bottle of Golden Spectro fully synthetic two-smoke mix. I'm all set to go once my riding gear comes in this week!

    My new toy

    Took her out for the first time today. Went down the trails in back of my house. All 1st gear bullshit. Got to the end of the trail in 3 mnutes where it normally takes 15 in a 4wd cage. Duh, shoulda thought of that.

    Loaded the bike into the Taco and headed up to Lost Lake dune. WOW this bike can go. 4th and 5th gears I'm ripping across wide open dirt roads lifting the front end through 20ft puddles. What a hit the top end of this thing has! It loves to overrev and CRANKS!!!

    Almost bit it a couple times but never went down. Stalled out twice trying to be stupid. Got some air here and there, felt good. Suspension is pretty stiff for me, I'm going to try to soften it a bit. Brakes work crazy good, clutch is easy to use and the tranny feels like it isn't even there. No clunk, click or anything. If you just look at it like it's time to shift it'll shift. Man these here dirty bikes have come a long way.....

    She starts up first kick weather cold or hot. Runs mint, idles mint even in 1st gear.

    Found myself leaning my ass off the seat in some sweeping corners, i gotta stop doing that!

    And that's TAME compared to my RS125! You've got to try one.

    If I recall from when I rode that bike at Jolly Roger MX last year... the powerband hit HARD, the throttle was almost a lightswitch.

    Sounds like you had a great time. Be fun to ride with you before I get rid of my CR125. A pair of tiddlers ripping around.. oh boy! You should seriously look into getting a FMF "Q" silencer. It's the must have for woods riding and keeping the old ladies from shutting down more riding areas.

    If you think the 125 hits hard... you shoulda seen me after getting on a 250F..http://www.nestreetriders.com/forum/...threadid=24171 my face was like
