So checked the black sliders and they move freely, the bike will idle for a bit but runs uneven, revs up and down, then after a little but of time it just cuts out. I know this to be a common fault if the coil is breaking down. Do I start chucking money at it!?
Thanks for the reply. I will look at the black sliders again tomorrow night. The bike was played with before I had it so it could be anyone of the faults you have mentioned.

So had another quick look at the bike, I took the air filter off so I could access the carb. I thought I would start it up just to see what it was like and in my opinion it ran better!? I also noticed some black bungs at the bottom of the carb, so removed them to reveal screw heads. What are these for? Also choke is working better with air filter removed. Do I have a mixture problem here? Any help would be appreciated

I will change the fuel lines as that’s all I can think is coursing the problem, I have lx spark plugs fitted already. I like the style of the bike but it will be in parts for ever if it carriers on annoying me!
Quick up date. I have stripped and rebuild my carbs, as I suspected there was a build up of crystallised fuel due to the bike standing for a long time. I replaced the stock main jets with 90 front 92.5 rear. Started the bike first time and much better then before, I let it worm up to clear sny cleaning solutions that may still be in the carb. Took the bike for a test ride but it feels like it’s not fueling correctly. As it splutters them revs back up as it should. I had to replace the fuel line as original lines where perishing, but the fuel line is a little to sma I think. Any ideas to what’s wrong. Everything was free and moving as it should on the carb before putting back on to the bike.

Hi Guys
I’m looking to upgrade my main jets and do a carb rebuild at the same time. My GV125 had been stood around for sometime before i bought it, in saying that i got lucky getting it going but i know it needs attention very soon. I’m looking for the correct jet size and a rebuild kit for the carb’s. As well as this I’m after some tutorial on how best to remove the carb’s as it was a nightmare the last time i done this and don’t want to struggle unnecessarily. Its fitted with straight through ss exhaust also, thanks in advance Shane
