Hi Noel, can you tell me what sort and size of dirt track tyre you run on your 125 dirt trackers please? ::)
Might seem obvious to others, but I can only find 18 X 4.00s and I am new to this and wondering if a 125 will swing them? or is there a different option that you use?
Any help appreciated, thanks and regards Mick.

Hi Mick,
not running my 125's at dirt track this year,
but yes I was using 400 /18, but they were cheapies that did not work at all well on the 500,
do not know what a "michy" or IRC  would be like but think Nev run them on his 74 CR125 OK,
Cheers
Noel

thanks Jim, I was wondering if any one had been able to find a smaller(narrower)  version to run on the 125's. but Noel has more or less just clued me up thanks.

If you want a base line for your CZ400 mikuni jetting I will go and inspect my cz400 mikuni if youy like? it is allready of the bike? let me know if you want it's jetting spec's.

Sorry there Jim, big project. I got the mikuni off the cz400 and it's only a 32mm. Just goes to show ya what I know, 9/10th's of bugger all ::)

I Haven't had spare grey matter or time to master picture posting yet, so Paul is about to do it for me.

I am thinking Ji may be able to help you. Good luck.
Mick.

Thanks Paul.

Hey Jim, PM Ji. I'am pretty sure he just set one up with a new 36mm Mikuni for the nationals.
It may even be here some where in his past posts.
God knows he posted everything else, hey Ji ;D

M Mick,
yes it is a "faster"  more open track than Nepean, but I don't think the top speed is faster,
the straight is not as long but the corners are higher speed.
so gearing  ::)
Cheers
