Re: rmr 125 lacking power
need more info
is your bike a 2 stroke or 4 ? when your reaching your "top speed" is the engine screaming at nearly top RPM's ?
if its a 4 stroke I dont see much to be done to get more speed , a 2 stroke with a spocket change might drag another 15 mph out of it , but u will lose nearly all the bottom end "grunt"
Re: rmr 125 lacking power
That bike is powered by 4-stroke Suzuki clone. Search spencer2004 's post for "mods".

(before i put it on the road i did a mini service replaced filters oil etc)
i thought maybe my air filter has some crap in it so checked that and its fine. Been told i could do with a new chain and sprocket as mines seen better days (think she done a little bit more than the 2700miles it says she done) i have no idea how much of a difference that could make ( this is my first bike newbie much ) was wanting a new pipe for it one of those little yoshimura ones on ebay :D how much difference do they make? ( cant afford atm no job?? (N)
Any suggestions will be brilliant!!
hi jay dunno if this helps but ive got a rmr 125 aswell and shes got a yoshimura end can (around 35 ish quid for a copy off ebay) new cone air filter upgraded jets and shel do 70-75 with a head wind no problem and sounds pretty awesome doing it too sure its somewhere to start anyway hope this helps
Re: rmr 125 lacking power
It could be something to do with the main jet; it could be blocked or you may need a bigger jet. If your carb and jetting is the same as the Pulse Adrenaline you will have a 97.5 jet, a 105 should be fine. You may also have crappy gearing for some reason, you could try a 16 tooth front sprocket and see how that goes.
