General Discussion / Mikuni carburetor parts

« on: July 16, 2019, 02:35:18 PM »

Hello
Can anyone recommend Mikuni carburettor part supplier. Preferably EU,UK or US supplier. I know that Mikuni OZ is a great supplier but Auspost/StarTrack just keep loosing parcels and will not compensate for lost items. Just sick of using Auspost.
Thank you for your help

Suzuki / 80 RM 125 stator

« on: October 05, 2018, 04:54:36 PM »

Hi everyone
Just would like to know if anyone have any experience(good or bad) with generic(I guess made in PRC) suzuki rm 125 stators like this one https://www.ebay.ie/itm/ElectroSport-ESC8081-OEM-Replacement-Stator-for-Suzuki-RM-and-TM-Models-/162022656083
I had a chance to look at one and only diference I could see was that the generic one does not have timing mark stamped where the plate is bolted to crankcase. I am considering one of these since it is a new item and not a 30-40 years old NOS for 250-300 dollars.  These stators are listed as part that suits many models of RM. I guess only diference would be that  timing has to be set since these stators dont have timing mark. I am considering one for a bike I am building. Bit of mix between 1979-80-81 Suzuki rm 125. Thank you for your advices and opinions.

Suzuki / 1980 suzuki rm 125 needle jet

« on: September 30, 2016, 04:46:29 PM »

Just would like to know what would be a replacement for a stock 1980 RM 125  S-O needle jet. New Mikuni VM32 carburetor I got has Q-6 needle jet. Not sure if Q-6 would work right and  S-0 needle jet is no longer available from Suzuki and MikuniOz does not list S-0 needle jet either.

http://motorky.bazar.sk/4218781-ktm-sx-125  Are parts available and easy to get? Of course I would not pay 500 euros for it but for right price it can be a nice bike.

Right lugs was fully rewelded and left lug had a cracked weld repaired(Properly weld preped and profesionaly tig welded). Is a heat treatment necessary or will it hold ok as it is. I know that these swingarm were originaly mig welded but I dont know about heat treatment. Thank you for your help and ideas.

Suzuki / Suzuki rm CDI unit identification

« on: March 12, 2015, 03:33:21 PM »

Is there any way to identify Suzuki rm CDI units? I have two black (plastic casing) CDI units, but they have no part numbers to identify them.  I can only guess what bike they suit by comparing them with pictures from part fiches. Any ideas?

Suzuki / Rm 100 crank gear and clutch in Rm 125

« on: December 09, 2014, 12:19:59 PM »

Just would lik to know if anyone here ever tried 79-80 Rm 100 crank gear and clutch basket on 79-80 Rm125. The only diference is Rm100 crank gear is 18T and Rm 125 is 19T. Rm100 clutch basket gear is 67T(same as 125) but diferent  tooth profile. The advantge of this swap would be  higher primary gearing ratio (RM 125- 3.52, RM 100-3.75) which may give the screaming 125 a litle more pull. Any thoughts/opinions?
