How to get more power from 2 stroke dirt bike. We continue working on our 2001 Yamaha YZ125 build and these are the power mods that will get us at least 10 more HP. Check out the video and let me know your thoughts. Cheers!

Tom is the only person I'd trust to work on my engines. His knowledge is only 50% of the package. He is kind,shows patients for stupid questions, meets every deadline,even early and not nit picky. He had to add parts to my job. He didn't charge me and wouldn't take payment for the extra He put into it. I'd invite Tom to Thanksgiving Dinner. I feel the 134 is perfect. I had a 144 and wished I never modified it.

Would love to see dynosharts aswell. Tom Morgan has a good reputation, he is a former factory tuner aswell so he got some good stuff up his sleeve. But i was suprised that you did stick with the stock ignition, easy way to get more rpm and longer pulls out of the engine.

You should do a pipe shootout for the yz125. I couldn't help but think you should have gone old school with a Bill's pipe setup for a bike like that. I think they're still around in a limited capacity. Bill was one of the kings back in the day. Especially after yamaha was doing a blind pipe test and Damon Bradshaw chose the Bill's pipe as his favorite. Early 90's time frame.

Have much extra vibration? Does it still feel like a 125? I’m sending my engine off to get a complete package but not sure if I wanna do 134 or 144, worry that 144 is going to change the bikes profile too much and I want the bike to still ride like a 125, just one that’s really fast

In 1999.Tom Morgan built Me a YZ330 Stroker,Crank Balance,Blue Printed Motor,Mod Piston ,Hinson Clutch,Vortex Ignition,Fmf pipe ,Reeds,Custom kX500 Mod Silencer.Why ? Too race the Lake Whitney Texas Series against the 450cc 4-Stroke Bikes. I won the 250,450 cc class.Place second in the open class.and yes, the yz330 will smoke the 450cc bikes even in the deep loam at lake whitney when they ran the the track up the Mountain. Great Bottom,Crazy Midrange,Good Over rev.I like to short shift my motors,Keeps the vibration down less tiring.That motor has been one of the best i ever had.was it a fun bike to ride? No.Too race yes.The funniest bike is my 2012 yz125.

@@johngray722 Now you are saying something different than the mods you first listed. I can tell you that since there is really no calibration for dyno's (Yes, I own one), they will read differently for actual power output, so don't put a lot of faith in somebody's actual dyno numbers. I don't believe what you say with your second post, because you did not say it in the first post. But if you just forgot, (?), it is very possible who ever did the engine work,--did not do a good job and probably does not match your pipe. Have Tom Morgan do it. I can believe 4hp for your first post though. If the 125 us like the 250's (which I have), it is pretty de-tuned stock also, so I can believe 10hp more here, but that is quite a gain.

The 4-strokes were forced on the industry by a dictatorship called the EPA,--no matter what the cost. And it hurt the sports market share greatly. Since 1973, there has never been fewer bikes sold. What was once free enterprise, is now run by a dictatorship. That is satan's work son.

What most dont realize. The stock pipe usually has the best HP results. Yamaha doesn't purposely leave hp on the table, they pour millions into r&d. The only thing they'd potentially short on would be quality of materials. Those fmfs are usually come in last but have decent torque numbers. Kinda pointless for a 125 tho

As an engine builder myself, (smaller 2-stroke engines/top end kits that I port with a cnc mill, as I port a lot of them.), you do have a pretty valid point. But, everything can be improved. I am sure a good custom pipe builder can find more power than most stock pipes for a particular cylinder/head.

Every section of the pipe from the header section to the stinger can be changed to get a shift in power and power increases. They do look similar, but if you measured each pipe section and tuned length, there are differences.
