Hey everyone, I have a 1983 Suzuki RM 125 2 stroke that I've had for about a month. First of all I cannot tell if my clutch is bad or if my carb is tuned incorrectly. In regards to the carb I think it runs rich. I have oil dripping from the muffler and it starts first kick almost every time with no choke. I also seem to have a loss of power at mid to high rpms, bike won't pull very hard ( I was riding today and it almost died when I gassed it quickly). When this happens the engine makes a different noise, it gets louder and kinda sounds like it's redlining but I know it's not. How do I fix this?
The clutch seems to be causing power loss too. Like if I pop the clutch at high revs in 1st the bike will pull a little harder but not even enough to get the front wheel off the ground. And I have to admit (I know this is bad), I did have oil in the trans that had friction modifiers in it for a week or two but it is changed now.
Any help is greatly appreciated. This was bought used and is my first dirt bike.
