[QUOTE="dragonlube, post: 132569, member: 1279"] Got a 2001 YZ125, yesterday was my first time riding an MX bike (had a ttr230), the issue was that I found it incredibly hard to get moving from a standstill, if I stopped the bike at just a slight uphill it would just be impossible to get moving again because no matter what combination of clutch releasing / gas giving I tried, it would bog down and then stall, sometimes it would eventually pick up the RPMs after a couple of seconds while slowly moving and from then on work perfectly. I weight 250lb and the gearing ration is 13/48, I'm not sure that's even the problem but 48 seems like it could be too low for my weight. Anybody got any other ideas Additional info: it happened from the moment I started riding until the end of the trip 3 hours later, hot or cold, didn't matter. oil/gas mixture ration 32:1 [/QUOTE]
