[QUOTE="CDA, post: 132691, member: 103"] Stock gearing on that 125 is 13/48 with a 6 speed trans. Hard to tell from your avatar, but looks like an after market pipe is installed so it should pull this gearing fine. This 125 tips the scales at around 196lbs and wants a small light rider so you will need to keep the Revs up all the time to get this bike to go anywhere. But like any bike that you buy used, drain all fluids and replenish with new, replace spark plug with new, clean carb including all jets, clean or replace air filter, Remove top end and inspect piston and rings and possibly the power valves and clean them and never, I mean never forget to grease the valve stem bearings....I can't tell you how many people forget to do this simple maintenance procedure....
