	I would tell him to bin his oil pump and pre-mix the petrol as they seem to always fuck up.

	It just fouls the plug too much oil the right mixture and decent quality and you wont need any extra :) Need to do plug checks every couple of thousand to see how its running imo always jelps

	quote: Originally posted by 3i_gaz Its bad oil that kills 2 strokes and too many revs when cold. I use to put a cap of 2 stroke in my petrol aswell. And let it tick over whilst putting my gear on. 17k miles in a year and abit on a 50 with a 70 bore kit :facepalm: Never had a problem though an it got death everywhere.

Mito's are better anyway. It was alwasys warmed before riding, neighbours hated me, i'd be out half an hour before goin out in the morning firing it up and it had an arrow race can on it! :lol:

	not a hard thing to do though is it mate. If we get stuck ill bring it down to yours to get it sorted maynn
3i_gaz	posted on 30th Jan 12 at 00:56
	i'll build it for him
FlaFFy_91	posted on 30th Jan 12 at 00:47
	i say it popped, basicly the gearbox was fucked, wouldnt rev above 5k and then if it did it sounded like a f1 car then it started seizing up and he still kept riding it into the ground and i think to be honest hes just worn the feck out of the bore and the rings as theres no compression and no way of it starting any more yer gaz ill send him down ive heard little end bareings are the main thing to do if your changeing it as they go quite easily
3i_gaz	posted on 30th Jan 12 at 00:21
	if you use decent fully synth 2 stroke they dont do rings half as often. i done 10k on my tuono 125 and it was absolutely mint! Just go to grampians in waterloo and grab a top end set and some rings. Easiest things to build ever mate.

	What happened when the engine 'popped' ? cos if it was main bearings/ crank then head/ top end may be damaged too...
colonel_g	posted on 29th Jan 12 at 21:47
	if you doing the rings might aswell whack a new piston in it too.

	Ah 2 strokes, they are the future, so simple ! Only did gaskets on the ones I replaced but you might as well do rings as it's simple simple stuff. Never even bothered to get the correct torque settings for the bolts, just as long as they were tight it was good.

	Just gaskets normally.
FlaFFy_91	posted on 28th Jan 12 at 14:29
	there you go then thats probly why then. Dont know shit about bikes tbh haha. Do you know if he has to replace anything (other than gaskets)?
Ojc	posted on 28th Jan 12 at 14:04
	I'm sure the reason he wants to keep the head is because the earlier bikes had slightly more power and if his his an earlier bike then there you go.
FlaFFy_91	posted on 28th Jan 12 at 13:43
	Bit of tech info basicly Friend of mine popped his rs125 engine so bought a new one He wants to keep the head and top end off his old engine for some reason Basicly what i wanted to know is do they work off things like stretch bolts that need replacing each time you remove them on the head? Or if hes swopping the head does he need to replace anything other than the gaskets obviously
