- In this video I show you how to fit an aftermarket exhaust to your new 125cc. It's fairly straightforward and can save you a fair few pounds doing it yourself.
I also do a sound comparison.

Used this video to fit my black widow to my duke. Awesome video really helpful 👍
Thats great. We'll done mate.
Appreciate the kind feedback.
I've had a NSR 125R fully unrestricted 110mph out of a 125cc. Aweome bike. Its still in the family it went towards my fathers bike collection he has more storage space than me.
Hi, I love 2 strokes, today's bikes just don't cut it. Although I'm not sure I'd want to see so many flying around on them for delivering food lol.

@@motorcyclerescuer Subscribed. I have enjoyed your videos especially the varadero one as i have one myself and recently been setting up the carbs. It was running on the rich side on the rear cylinder you could smell the unburnt fuel and they was'nt balanced right. All sorted now you can feel the power difference when pulling away and accelerating. It was kinda sluggish before and bogged down a bit. and the exhaust fumes are now clearer too.
@@LeeKirkman88 that's good, my one was a right pain but I got there in the end. Yanaha used very weird jetting and needles in these carbs so if you don't follow their set up perfectly they run like crap.
I would be curious to see if jetting them both the same would improve the running of these bikes.
Some say yanaha jetting one of the carbs differently to restrict the bike to get it to be 125cc bhp compliant in the UK.
That would be an interesting experiment
@@motorcyclerescuer yeah the service manual for the varadero says the rear should be set lower 3cm i think when balancing the carbs. And some say that also is to restrict its power. I've just balanced mine equally and seems to pull alot stronger.
@@LeeKirkman88 yes I did mine equally in balance. Did you jet yours equally and put the same needles in?
Omg love it love ktm
That's Rabjabs bike. They are great looking bikes George.
great bike great video, KTM are stunning but wow the price !!!
i think i have fell in love with the Varadero and have found online the price vary sooo much
I'm not a fan after working on this one if I'm being honest, they are to touchy and hard to tune. It's a right pain. It's bevause I can't get my hand in to tune the carb when it's running. If I could it would be solved in no time.
if there are blowouts at the joint between the muffler and the end pipe then apply muffler cement, will this work?
Yes it should do depending on the side of the gap
did you have to remap the bike or can you just fit the exhaust with no other issues. if there was any issues what was they
Hi Nicola, no you don't need to re map the bike, modern bikes will adjust themselves for some extras and run well.
If you wanted more power then you could look into tuning the bike and ecu.
Hope this helps

I think you made hard work of fitting that! If he lost that spare tyre from his waist it would go a lot faster🤣
It was easy enough. I've done plenty.
I think that it is an age thing mate. It sounds good but not my thing either. At least he can’t sneak up on you now!
A more interesting measure will be how London’s police react and if he gets more attention!
I tell him this every time and he dosnt listen. However he wasn't going to ask me because he know I'm not keen on loud exhausts on small bikes, so I felt bad and wanted to save him the money.
Any chance of hearing it without the baffle in? And does the baffle have a little cap on the end? Sounds like it’s just free flowing to be honest but could be wrong
No point removing that baffle, by the sounds of it, it wasn't doing any anyway. Next time he's around I'll pop it out and film it. Will sound like having no pipe though I'm sure.
Do you know if the ktm rc 125 from 2017 need remap ? Or it's adjusting the settings automaticaly ?
Hi Alex, all cdi running bikes have the capability to adjust within a certain amount of change. It will adjust itself to run well and be safe.

I have this decat pipe. You missed out the washer that holds the decat pipe in that’s why it was loose
It comes in the decat box it’s a little silver thing the bolt can slide through makes it Sit properly.
I put it on on the end mate. He had forgot the sticker and rubber for the pipe so I put it together roughly for him to pop home. When he came back I nipped it all up properly and added the spacer on the pipe.
Thanks for watching.
Bike wasn't much faster to be honest but sounded better.
You have spacers for the de-cat pipe's bolt... Why would you drill a hole?????
I'm unsure what exactly your saying but the brackets to secure the mid section to the frame had holes pre drilled but they weren't an exact fit. So needed slight modification.
@@motorcyclerescuer they come with a bolt. The same as the one they hold the end can… you have two spacers which make it fit properly. Its not supposed to be drilled. It says it on the instructions. I was about to drill a hole as well while watching this video…
Mine was bought over 2 years ago. The original kit they sent may have been different. They may have perfected it now. But in my kit the mid section securing hole wasn't in the right place so needed moving by a few mm as seen in the video.
There really is no issue drilling a slightly bigger hole or a new one if needed. This exhaust is still on his bike today and going strong.
@@motorcyclerescuer Strange, yes they might have corrected it. Now it has two spacers which makes no problem fitting it, fitted mine yesterday. Didn't though about your point! :D
Yeh they often do that. The kit was brand new at the time for the new shape KTM. Once people complain they then change things.
How's your bike feel with the new exhaust? It should feel lighter and smoother
Have you got a link to this exhaust as well is it yanno road legal? lol

yeah to slow i had a rd125 lc very quick always wanted a tzr250 but money was tight in them days great vid
I always wanted an rs 250, still kinda do. Crazy fast bikes them things.
@@motorcyclerescuer look at the Yamaha tzr125r Belgarda....had one & it was a 100mph +
@@DB71170 yep my mate had one, we blew it up in the end putting nitro shots in it. About 15 years ago.
The mk 1 cagiva mito is the best in my opinion. 110mph.
@@motorcyclerescuer aprilia frecia c5 was better than the mito personally.
Don't suppose you know if it will be easy or possible to put the cat back in.
Yes very easy
Hi I have a 126 duke 2021 model and my cat goes along the bottom of the bike cus wondering how do I remove it?
It should be the same method as this Kyle. Buy a replacement and swap it over. It's very straightforward mate.

I’ve got a 2000’s rs50 that I wanted to make one of my projects but need to sell it because I need the money unfortunately
They are very complex bikes anyway RT. I'd go with a lexmoto or chinese to start projects. Many parts, reasonably priced and you can make them better then when they came out the factory.
motorcycle rescuer well I’ve got the aprilla rs50, a Honda cbf and doin im getting a lexmoto hawk so will be working on 3 bikes at once
@@rtvids8414 nice, I've done a couple cbfs, they are nice bikes to work on. Fairly straightforward.
motorcycle rescuer yeh but it’s in rlly bad condition
@@rtvids8414 I guess just take your time with it. 1 part at a time.
Moody git
Lol.
