it's harder on the bike in the states, here in italy or europe in general tbh, we ride 125s on the street all the time without many problems because we dont have your straights. It's hard there, love that you still do it
please dont engine brake on a 2 stroke. Especially not the 125s! they rev so high. since the cylkinder doesnt get any oil when u dont gas it will lock up on u eventually. happened me thats why im tellin you
@@OskarAxl as long as you aren't dropping from 5th to 2nd into a corner you'll be fine . im at 100hrs on my current top end and have no issues with compression loss
@@TwoStrokeJ Wont this bike blow up bcs is not made for the road its mead for racing the piston will brake in half and the engine will be destroyed because that engine needs to have a load and if you drive it on the road, the piston will not have good combustion, so what the point?
Please don’t listen to the people telling you to stop engine braking, you are totally fine doing so. Here in italy we race 125 2 strokes (mx and sport bikes) and engine braking is crucial (if you actually want to stop😂) and guess what, no-one ever had any problems. Keep riding
I see 15 year olds in Italy shredding 125’s on twisty roads engine braking the crap out of them and yea it seems fine haha. I’m sure it can be over done but I don’t think it’s as bad as people think
dude what, engine braking does not slow down the bike at all compared to just using your brakes. also if u engine break in high rpms=engine gets gas only through idle jet=less gas/oil mixture which can lead to too little lubrication. Pistons lifetime gets much longer when you just pull in the clutch and let it roll. Also such an easy thing to do so no point to not do it
@@elias842 And it wears out the engine faster. Even if it never breaks it will be the same as having too little oil and riding it "correctly" when having the right mixture but using engine brake alot :) Also people mistake longer gearing "hurts acceleration" every time. Only hurts from standstill because 1st is harder to launch but when youre going 20mph for example on 2nd with long gears its identical to being on 3rd gear on stock sprockets. Same power goes to the wheel and youll accelerate for longer and shift less😎
Been filing down baskets for years. No issues at all. Just try to keep things as equal as possible. I measure each tab with digital calipers in a couple places after taking out the groves.
The videos have really improved in production quality and it’s awesome. Really appreciate all the work you put into the videos and hope to see more great content!!!!
holy shit I remember watching you back when you just got it and started learning wheelies , then somehow lost the channel and now I see you're still killing it and the bike looks clean af :D Gearing a 125 motocross bike for the street is pretty much impossible , so looks like the current setup is as good as it gets.
125s have a narrow powerband. I don't know if the stock cylinder can be ported for a wide powerband, suitable for your needs. A blank sleeve could be ported for a wide, street friendly powerband. You'd need an exhaust designed for it. One good place to start, would be a Yamaha RD250, as the 250 is a twin cylinder 2 stroke with is twice the displacement of the 125. The RD250 had two exhaust pipes and one of them could be modified to fit or could be copied as a base to experiment with. I love the idea of stressing a motocross bike and have dreamed of doing so since I was a teen. Subscribed.
Everytime I’ve looped a stoppie I’ve ended up in hospital Least was a broken collarbone and worst was broken ankle both bones in both arms broken and 3rd degree burns on one arm and my chest. But still love doing stoppies they are so much fun
If stock is 12 you should go 14 front and -2 on the back. Would probably still be too short for the street :) I changed a KX250 gearing from 13/49 to 15/46 for ice riding and it still maxes out at 137km/h only 😁 The practical cruising speed with those sprockets is around 80km/h.
Not my man using a 10” adjustable wrench for the brake bleeder valve 😂. Gotta make do I guess haha. I kid, great video, keep up the good work. Maybe we could link up this summer and you ride my CR500 street legal sumo.
You can file the clutch basket. You don't have to go for perfect to make it feel nice. You also don't want to great a ton of play. Just file it down to 80-90% smooth and send it.
WAIT i watched this video and loved it but i was like hmm «Two Stroke J» HOLY F***ing shit its YOU bro i’ve watched yo vids since i was a kid years ago. love to see ur still thriving and driving bud. keep up the good work❤
That is a beautiful story man haha crazy to think I’ve been doing this long enough for people to be fans, completely loose the channel, and then find it years later! Amazing haha thanks for the love bro
By streetworthy I thought you meant registration and plate, break light and even headlight with generator or battery. Over here in uk its done but most are not legal because every exhaust has to be "e" marked to prove its quiet enough unless its 25+ years old! You can get flywheel generator kits, I think even inner rotor ones.
Sick video 💪🏼 A 16mm radial master cylinder would be optimal for the motomaster calipper. I have a 19mm Brembo rcs radial master which is way too aggressive for normal Street riding. But its so sick when racing. Absolute minimal effort for max braking power. Like pushing a feather to make a stoppie
no , the motomaster has smaller pistons compared to other 4 pistol callipers, anything larger then 13mm is overkill. The original motomaster cylinder is actually a 12mm Magura HC1 (just as in this video) just with a different logo and it's the optimal setup for the calliper
Brill a video to sit back and relax, can I be cheeky and ask for more content 🤣 Few things to mention: O-ring chains on a two stone is a no no, specially 125's! "Zaps" too much power, maybe in a 250 but I prefer not to but a 500 go ahead, 2) the drz spokets are the same fitment as the RM's I believe so if you need a small gear on the back for even longer gears try them maybe a 44T but they go as low as 38T I believe but you might not be able to get it up easily (gigady) 3)engine braking no no on two strokes as once you are if the throttle, fuel/ oil mixture isn't getting in the cylinder to lube things up.
13:08 Try pulling the clutch when doing this. When you are at ballance point. I've heard when you don't give it gass while it running. It's not getting fuel. So you can kill the engine by doing that. I am not proffesional with these things but just what people tell me. Btw - nice wheelies ;)
I dont know what suzuki motocross gearing is like, but I have 14-44 gearing on an exc, which I beleive has longer gearing inside the gearbox from factory compared to an mx bike and it wheelies fine, just takes time to learn could also be that because its en Enduro bike from factory, it has more tork on the bottom end compared to a mx
2 stroke j get another Yamaha dt50lc. i would love a build series and their is lots of aftermarket parts. it is a very popular bike to tune in Portugal
Hey at the start of the series you said that the bike didn't idle and it was always leaking oil out of the exhaust. I've had the oil leaking problem ever since I bought my derbi senda 50 and recently it stopped idling. do you know what could have caused the problem?
supermoto is life. just looped mine a week ago, not even fully healed and ive already been wrenching on it.
good luck with healing!
Always a good day when Two Stroke J uploads. Love the vids man!
thanks so much for the support my guy! It means a lot!

I agree, jetting have to be spot on or to the richer side if video publisher want to ride prolonged on straight roads 👍
please dont engine brake on a 2 stroke. Especially not the 125s! they rev so high. since the cylkinder doesnt get any oil when u dont gas it will lock up on u eventually. happened me thats why im tellin you
yea I've always heard that and I try to not do it much but I've never had issues. Im sure some day itll get me
I've been engine braking 2 strokes like as long as I've been alive. Never had an issue.
as long as u dont overdo it you are fine like just dont use high rpm the engine always gets oil and gas because otherwise it would not idle
what is engine braking? is it when you dont use your clutch when slowing down/not giving gas or what
@@OskarAxl as long as you aren't dropping from 5th to 2nd into a corner you'll be fine . im at 100hrs on my current top end and have no issues with compression loss

seen the most 2 stroke engine seazing up videos from italy and it has awlays been after a long engine break.
Everytime I watch your videos I just want to go work on my bike. Keep up the great content my guy!❤❤❤
Thanks man! Glad to inspire!
Been filing down baskets for years. No issues at all. Just try to keep things as equal as possible. I measure each tab with digital calipers in a couple places after taking out the groves.
No way! I used to watch your videos like years ago and now you just popped up on my page again! So stoked when I saw your video
Missed watching your video brother. Appreciate the effort you put on creating video.
Thanks for noticing man! I appreciate you spending the time to watch!
Happy riding season everyone!
right back at you brotha!
Makes me miss my old 04 RM125! Hopefully someday I will get to ride one again, until then always love watching the vids!
Just got one the same year 🔥
Really nice production. Very relaxing video too. Thank you for your motivation and quality!
Love you bro
This channel is going to pop off like crazy, trust me
Love bro! All love!
Seriously underated
🤝
This channel is too underrated, like man has quality videos and rides like a champ and still under 100k subs?!?!?!
The videos have really improved in production quality and it’s awesome. Really appreciate all the work you put into the videos and hope to see more great content!!!!
Hell yea man, love the banana two smoke supermoto! Keep it up man!
It’s a banana for sure haha thanks man!
i think i have watched this vid like 3 times and its still amazing
perfect timing i just finished your rebuild series on this bike
glad you found your way to this one!

lets go he uploaded great to see yah two stroke j can wait for the next banger
appreciate the love brother
Hey man I love the bike! I filed the clutch plates on my son's Kx60, and now it works perfectly, I would definitely recommend
glad to see the RM125 content back in action!
Me too brother!

I would looove an RD250 or RD350. They are actually one of my dream bikes
bro woke up and decided to upload a masterpiece
Quality is getting better with each video, keep it up brother! Sick bike!!

It's a yellow watermeloan on my screen 😍😍😍😍
Wake up honey Two Stroke J uploaded again
Been watching since you were learning how yo wheelie at the lot.
You've came a long way.
Keep killing it bro.🤘
sick bike, what you said is why i enjoy the early 90s wr for 2 stroke street legal. just bag that powerband like it was intended lol
the only youtuber i look forward to when they upload

Yea bro the bleeder valve was so small none of my normal wrenches fit haha had to pull out the only adjustable I had 😂
awesome quality!! cant wait for more street content on the rm!
❤️
missed the videos , great to have you back
that gold clutch really literally came in clutch
Dude it's been so crazy to grow up with you, watching on youtube lol, I remember when we was just young bloods still XD

always love the videos and the builds man, keep up the good work🙏❤️
broo the dream bike of dream bike's i wish i could afford a bike like this have fun with this bike man❤❤
Love the content cant wait for more of the 450 i have the same bike and it great seeing you on it
love you videos wish we had supermoto in our country
you could start the trend!
Nice watch, have the same one. They're the best
Great content always,Big respect from Albania
all the way out there lets gooo thanks man!
I believe I got my cr125 a year after you posted getting this bike and I’m doing a supermoto build
i love how he says street worthy not legal
My 250 2 stroke has been refreshed for 2months. I really need to go and ride..
I should give a award to your editor
Hey that’s me! Haha thanks man!
the adjustable wrench on that lever bleed goes hard 🤣
Excellent video. The editing went perfect with the music and actions on screen. Love this 125 such an awesome sumo.
My man, still loving the videos💛
the come back is coming
would love to see you build some of those vehicles.
this lil 2 strike must be light like a feather
The gearing is perfect now
Oh and parts of Asia they have a Honda xrm 125 which is kind of like a scooter and a dirt bike put together
that's sick
10:01 we got a hooligan folks😅iYkYk
Mmmmmm, Malossi reeds on the Maxi, good call!
Ive never seen anyone do brakes with a giant syringe from the caliper up.
That's actually pretty genius.
Yep it’s like a reverse bleed. Pushes like 95% of the air out the top right away

17 hours riding? Time for a rebuild.
I like your watches 👌 in every single video i look at your wrist and check your watch😂
Haha I love that you notice! I like wearing different ones haha
good to see the RM back again🍌
My Guy Is The Best!
Love your videos man☺️
I love you! I appreciate it bro

I couldn't imagine a 2 stroke lacking power outside the powerband 😱

You should do more scooter videos love the video though!!
definitely will be!

could also be that because its en Enduro bike from factory, it has more tork on the bottom end compared to a mx
Might need to get a new subframe then weld gussets to strengthen it from bending
GRATS !!! killing it
what camera do you use while riding? thanks!
Nice bike😊
2 stroke j get another Yamaha dt50lc. i would love a build series and their is lots of aftermarket parts. it is a very popular bike to tune in Portugal
yessirrr, RM looking greatttt
that chain looks like its stretched since it stayed really solid when you took it off so i would replace it
Are you going to bring back the Honda xr150l
absolutely man I ride it all the time! Just need to film another video with it
Solid bike but I think it would be sick if you made the 450 a built supermoto.
It's funny you can tell alot about someone how they work idk where homies at but I'd letm 🛠 my bike
How did you get that thing street legal without a headlight? haha
It has a headlight! It’s a super low profile light bar right above the handlebars
Hey at the start of the series you said that the bike didn't idle and it was always leaking oil out of the exhaust.
I've had the oil leaking problem ever since I bought my derbi senda 50 and recently it stopped idling.
do you know what could have caused the problem?
14-45 is the best street gearing works perfekt
What about consuption, i have a '07 RM 250, and im thinking to change it to supermoto, since im going to get another one for Enduro/Motocross
cant with that clutch
