I don't know of a 'better' gearbox for them, unless you slap in a whole 125C bottom end
Naughty boy Nathan, that wouldn't be a very legal thing to do, would it?

Indeed - if I'd been suggesting that fitting the C bottom end was a good/legal idea, then my wording would have been more like "Just use a C bottom end".
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Here in the US, the 1975 YZ125 was still a twin shocker, the 250 and 360 B wre, of course the 1st year monoshock YZs. ..and yes a 125 A ( or  B for that matter) were little more than mx 125s. Still, my friend put an nos Noguchi kit on his in late 1992, and while it only went about 4 races-it flew. We wanted to put a C engine in it, but it was illegal, so sold the C for chump change..if only we could go back and correct our mistakes.....

I cant say the 125 does anything for me, the 250 or the 360 on the other hand does. you wana swapped that flogged 360 of yours for this nice little 125 here then Ross ?

thanks Freaky but my flogged 360 goes well enough to stay in front of you so I might keep it for a bit longer eh!

Are you going to the Nats this year?
