is the bike still going good 2 months later?

@adoyle66 once I did a top end I have not had it cut out whatsoever it’s been amazing

@@FullThrottleEdits If you had your knowledge and didnt have the ktm would you rather the husky or the ktm?

@adoyle66 I know someone that had a husky and sold it because it was way worse, especially because husqvarnas airbox is more air tight. It wouldn’t even really run at all.

@@FullThrottleEdits oh thats not good, also how what would I get first after having the bike? my friends have told me to get an ecu.

I’m not sure how it would do with a bigger rider I weigh 160 so it’s hard to say but I will say I had a 2004 cr 125 and a 2002 kx 125 and both of those were way slower and way less powerful than this 23. So I would say give it a shot or look for a ktm 150sx. 40 hours on my stock clutch and if you watch my videos you can see I beat up my clutch so I think it’ll work.

i am 6 1 165 and it's perfect@@FullThrottleEdits

Make sure you’re up to date on all of the recalls, next run the vented side panel. The main issue with mine is that the squish gap on the base gasket was .05 off of what it needed to be making the piston detonate early and not reach the top of the cylinder, so after my first rebuild it ran amazingly.

If you ride a 50cc chances are you aren’t a pro 161 cm is a little small but is very possible you technically don’t you just start the bike and go although it is a good idea to turn it on and let it idle for about 20 seconds

Just get an 85 bigwheel

Ur to short and a ktm 125 is probably way to fast for you

Yes, great bike to learn on especially with it being a fuel injected 2 stroke it’s really smooth and easy to handle.

I had always wanted a new 125, and the fuel injection was the main reason I bought it. It’s worth it, they’re so easy to ride with the fuel injection, it rides basically like a 4 stroke.

You have to have mapping for fuel injected bikes, it’s a computer, it has to know how much fuel to send to the motor. These bikes run good now, you won’t have an issue with a 23+

@@FullThrottleEdits hmm unsure if it worth an extra like 2 bands I’m already going to spend more than I have on a vehicle

Your dealer will have them on their computer

Redline Oil 40:1 91 gas

@@FullThrottleEditsu want to be running 100+ octane will help with detonation also take the pipe off the ecu work with the stock pipe and doesnt have the parameters to give the extra fuel for the pipe

I ride mostly 2nd and 3rd gear, 2nd out of corners and 3rd on straightaways and jumps, if everything is stock on the bike that’s how you should be riding it is without 1st.

@@FullThrottleEdits not that i have an issue with first its 2nd up. Gears are super short i dont even feel the same pwr band at all is like i can only rev to like half the rpms and need to shift to 3rd

@rigobertorosell you should be riding it wide open in all the gears shifting a lot, that’s how 125s work. If you watch my videos on mine I’m constantly shifting but never shift above 3rd

@@FullThrottleEdits i got 2 85s for my son this is the first fi bike i gotten. And i know and riden i dont think im explaining myself properly sorry. But yeah i will have to shift above third for sure jusr because i have no range on rpms after 1st ill see if can do a vid its only got less then an hour thats why i was asking maybe ecu cutting rpms for break in or something

@@rigobertorosell it shouldn’t be cutting rpm’s for break in, if you’re fully revved out it does have a rev limiter that you will hear, maybe the break in fuel is too rich and not letting it rev out?

Yes, way lighter, way more fun and can compete with 250s

Switch to a br9 plug

The newest update with the crank positioning sensor bracket and new maps

​@@FullThrottleEdits do you have more information on that? Online I can only find talk about the dealer updating the bike when plugged into their system, but most dealers not even knowing an update exist. I didn't see anything about a crank sensor.

@ryancravens8470 I screwed that up in the video, it was a crankshaft positioning sensor bracket not just “crankshaft positioning sensor”

@@FullThrottleEdits was there anything you needed to do, or was it just take it to a dealer? I *should* be picking up a NOS 23 sx125 this week.

@ryancravens8470 the dealer did everything for free, make sure they fixed all the recalls before you leave with it

I will be making a video on this soon after 55 hours and one rebuild but the secret to all the issues for me at least, was the squish gap is wrong from the factory, causing all the detonating issues. The bike has not skipped a beat since a top end was put it and I’ve never had an aftermarket tune or anything. Still loving the bike after the chaos when first buying.

I need to get it tuned honestly but might move to a 250sx

@@FullThrottleEdits 👍

ehhh cant agree with that at all. you should look at it from a different point of view. Ktms previous gen was a great bike some of the best 2 strokes ever to come out. so now you're gonna fault them for being the only manufacture to continue to advance the two strokes when they are having problems with a whole new platform literally redesigned the whole entire bike... this happens to car manufacture all the time
