Thanks for the response Marcel I’ll look into what you have mentioned in the next few days i did have iridiums (cr8eix) in my bike at first now I put some cr8e just to get by and test but my new cr8e plugs are already black/fouled after a day of testing different rev ranges idling and trying to ride
Hope you had a great Christmas
Front cylinder is 150 psi i did the old fashioned way of checking leaky valves put some fuel on the valves let it sit for 30ish mins check to see if any fuel leaked past from what I seen no fuel got past I typically line my ring opposite from eachother did this on other 125’s like the older suzuki dr honda cg and honda xr never seemed to run into a issue no oil is getting burnt as plugs are a nice tan colour no black plugs but also seems to be lacking on throttle response healthy spark timing on rear bank is 2 (ex) facing β¬οΈ exactly where the rocker cover bolts go so is the (in) 3 if that makes sense just to get timing out the way to make sure its spot on I’ll get it taken apart tomorrow to inspect that top end again maybe I got unlucky and a valve has now started to leak after first fire up
Hi Marcel thanks for getting back to me
Had a ride out today did 4 miles if that bike died would randomly fire but not run pushed it home it then decided to fire up again while running it still has the flat sound to it most it would do is 50-60mph also struggled to rev past 11k rpm’s did a compression test bike near the limit on the rear bank but the bike has been like that for a while (125psi when warm throttle open) yet it ran spot on when I first got it compression hasn’t changed i looked over the bike valves sealed fine piston rings where snug at 0.25mm on my feeler gauge put it back together and ever since I’ve had this running issue and a flat single cylinder sounding vtwin
