RS 125R FP

DT 125 R

but the choke is not and you are putting more fuel in from the choke I don't know just saying its possible and when your at mid revs the choke might not give either fuel also and from my understanding, they lean out mid revs before getting rich again so could be a problem just what I would be thinking about if it was me I mean I would try what he has done, to be honest, but I would be like to fix it asap

so basically I was just going out for a midnight blast as we so stupidly do from time to time got a bit too happy on the gas while on a country road with sharp bends started setting up for the corner too late so tryed to brake while leaning right into the corner which pat on the back i think I did well felt the nobbly's and realised I was not going to make it so I picked the bike back up with brake and then let go and accepted it the bike just I think has gone up on its front and fell sideways hardly any damage twisted folks broke leaver indicator shrubs in my tyre bead like how does that even happen ??? ??? not checked for buckles yet all panels are good amazingly bit or damage to clocks and a loose wire or to I think so lucky as hell I was catapulted off as the bike hit the ditch gone flying landed into a roll 2x not even a scratch on my helmet don't think I even have any bruises but all my right side is achy and all my arm and hand is swollen no broken bones been checked so considering the speed and the location I am extremely lucky and I personally as much as I should not have been in the situation I think I handled it the best way possible it could have been so much worse as I have now gear at the moment no jacket or anything jeans and hoodie is all

this one is a crap comparison the RS with no rave valve feels like it has no balls till its going I like the DT pinned but the RS pinned nooo way its crap

to be honest there all 125's chuck a can of beans down your throat and fart to the finish if your after speed and acceleration get a bigger bike I personally am not a fan of picking a bike based on numbers especially when there only gonna be like 2 mph difference it's not about what the bike can do its what you can do

So as titled really had the bike a few months not done anything to it not even start it apart from change levers and new battery this will be my daily ride when it passes its MOT this will be a slow project and ideally, I will get another alternative ride in the future

@declan braided brake lines and paint the calipers

@Calum chinesium snap-on then

I have no words other than thank you @Calum

I was and maybe will return to one-day pc gaming and I agree pc is superior it's physically impossible for consoles to compete and that consoles have destroyed the scene and the games
I remember struggling with levels for like half a day + yes its frustrating but when you finish the feeling of accomplishment is better than completing every ps4 game made
games get easier so more people play and unfortunately pc games are following even counter-strike is getting noob friendly I see consoles like I see apple there both noob user-friendly, stylish and very restrictive so lock their consumers to them and make then brand bash but I will say pc creatures need to make all features from consoles available like split screen and stuff so its more friend friendly
and yes games are so cheaper and mods are awesome
I just felt the need to say all this
