Nice wheels....

Lovely bike. Is this one full power? Has it got the RAVE system installed?

The later ones are more restrictive but the wiring loom for the solenoid and control system should still be there under the rear seat

It's full steam ahead he has had 110 out of it but said he wouldn't push it further!
He has confirmed it has 4800 miles for £1k yes he is a good friend lol

Energized · DTR Legend

Yeah they're rapid looks exactly the same as my mate's old RS, did about 95+ top end was rapid.

Calum122 · Guru

Lol. 110 what kph?

zander · DTR Senior Member

The RS125 engine (rotax 122) is a great engine! Ports are good tuned already from stock. Best thing you can do to that thing is to derestrict the exhaust and cdi, then get the same 34mm dellorto carb they use on the old rs125. Then it'll be a rocket!

Although 3/4 of my friends with an RS125 have had their engine seized atleast once, so give it some proper maintenance

Calum122 · Guru

The old rs's? Not sure what you mean.

Are you not mistaken it for the GORGEOUS Aprilia AF1 Futura?

KenDOG · DTR Senior Member

110mph I can get 80 out of my dt is 110 for a full power rs not possible? It's got the exhaust etc
Well ill tell you how fast I can get out of it then

KenDOG · DTR Senior Member

I can't wait!!!!
Got £200 for tyres anyone suggest some?
Cheers
Ken

Calum122 · Guru

Mine need replacing lol. They're low as hell.

Well my rs has that full arrow system. 160 polini big bore. Full derestricted. That'll do 110. Just.

Calum122 · Guru

But it's all down to gearing.

Ken mate. One thing i will absolutely stress to you. Heed my warning!

The gears that drive the oil pump are made from plastic! CHECK THEM OVER WHEN YOU GET THE BIKE!

I was riding 3 miles away from home up the hills when mine went. Should hear the gearbox make a real strange sound. Get the bike home asap!

It's on the left hand side of the engine. Unfasten the oil plug sump. Drain the oil. The gears are mext to the clutch on the left. Check them periodically for signs of wear. Otherwise it will cost you big!

Other than that. Clean the Rave if it's got it. The newer ones don't. That is a must. And use decent oils and it'll last a long time.

The 50CC one you had or the colour scheme again?

If you wanted the 50CC again, it'd be kinda boring going from a 125 to a 50 all the time.

And the laws on 50CC's puts you in a right loop hole for major ass raping without vaseline.

Calum122 · Guru

Either or. What are you on about boxing? What a 50cc is not allowed to go faster than 30mph. That is just when you're 16 mate.

Would actually like the 125. As i recall when i turned 17 or turning 17 i was getting rather too large for the bike lmao!

ToySoldier · DTR Legend

dude your incorrect at 16 your only aloud a 50cc with a maximum speed of 30mph once your 17+ a 50 can do what ever speed it wants to.

it would only need to be rereged if you fit a 70 bore but if its on a 50 bore what is there to re reg? it does not say anything about speed on the logbook does it?

all but one restriction on bikes are by licence and not bike the one bike restriction there is that i know of is the 299kph top speed restriction that comes out of the factory on busa's and so on

Nope, law states ALL 50CC's must be restricted to 30MPH. It'd have to be re-registered if it did over 30MPH. Age doesn't matter, it's the law.

Calum122 · Guru

Boxing now you're just being a grandad. I seriously doubt you would grt pulled for doing 40 on a 50 in a 40. I'd put money on it. And i don't usually gamble.

yamahayz125 · DTR Senior Member

Most 50cc scoters do over 30 mph every 1 I had did at least 50 mph

Calum122 · Guru

Damn those wheels are sexy :D

CarlosRexx · Guru

Nevermind.

Got the rs, it's sleeping next to the dt....
What a smart looking machine it is-its absolutely immaculate I can't believe he let it go for £1k I rang him up on the way back home with the bike in the van and he wouldn't talk to me properly "he said he was devastated" lol
