    Hello all!

    I'll be picking up a new 2013 WR125/144 next week. The dealer will be installing the 144 kit. Just a read a thread about a throttle recap or something? Are there any real KNOWN issues with the WR125/144's that I should look out for before accepting delivery? Is there anything specific that I should look for, or have the dealer take care of?

    This year / model does not come with a speedo or headlight right? Buying a poly sport headlight and trail tech speedo from the dealer as well....anyone running these?

    Grease all the bearings before you ride if you can. (steering head and linkage for sure) You will thank yourself later. Pack them full of good waterproof grease. Will save piles of $$ and frustrations shortly down the road. Check your sprocket bolts. Then check them again after a few rides. Alway check the nut not the bolt side. Check engine mount bolts and head stay every once in a while. If you ride really hard or jump a lot keep checking the head stay, they can crack. Down the road if you have starting and fouling issues ground your coil. Common issue on these but really just a heads up if you have issues way down the road and are wondering why it fouls plugs al of a sudden. Replace the front axle bolt with something better (EZer to get out on the trail) or make sure you pack the little tool for it. If you want more power a different pipe does wonders. The FMF is good. these are really solid and super fun bikes, enjoy.

    My 11 is plated. They were issuing straight titles for the bike.
    The best cover I have found is Dirt and Mud and Spooge.

    I meant just a plain ol title. Plates are a matter of going to dmv and say 'I want a plate Please. Heres my insurance'.

    I meant the OP, many older ones are lost or they just never bothered. My 99 has nothing.

    Too bad, I always ask. Where are you located? If close I'll spread the word.

    In states like NJ you can't ride in a enduro unless you have a street registration and insurance. No title, no plate. I've been trying to find a titled frame for my 99 125 for this reason. IO can only ride it on tracks/private property.

    That thing is as clean as mine was, great condition. You may kick yourself for selling it one day. If you part it out, give me a shout!

    I think here in Maine....anything under 250cc and you don't need a title to get a plate
