Forums 🚦 RIDERS LOUNGE 😃 General Chat Hi from Belgium Reply To: Hi from Belgium
Hello! I’d stay away from ECU flashes and such, doing things like that tend to come with their own problems sadly if it aint broke don’t try fix it ;). The chain is a must, you wouldn’t go back I had to washer up my left hanger bracket but I doubt you’ll have this problem on a GV. Just out of interest what tyres are on it? If it’s the Shinkos (I doubt it being that old) please get rid! Might be worth looking for a front fender extender too if they do one for yours :).
Oh okay, yeah an ecu flash seems super risky indeed, I was only thinking about it cause a friend of mine recently flashed their Honda Monkey 125 with pretty cool results (noticably faster accelleration and higher top speed). But I think with the chain, clutch, and possibly spark plug upgrades I’ll be fine until I graduate to a larger displacement. I bought my gv125s secondhand but I’m pretty sure it’s still the stock tyres on there. I’ll take a picture tomorrow and post it here so people can check.
Is something happening with your clutch? does it need it? Spark plug upgrades and stuff would be wicked for you! I would genuinely not bother installing a new clutch unless it’s properly fully gone it isn’t worth the time paying someone to do it unless you need to. How many miles are on your speedo? has it done much?
ah no I don’t think anything is wrong with the clutch per sé but I read people here saying it was one of the things most worth upgrading after the chain. You think it’s not necessary? Probably best to do the spark plugs and caps first then?
