    Hi there,

    New WR125 owner - 2012 model

    I had my first run our Sunday and the bike ran great although it was difficult to start when warm. First kick from cold but from warm it wouldn't start unless I rolled the throttle on to about 1/4.
    I have read that they are jetted rich on the pilot circuit from standard. I have gone through the bike and set the float to 8mm as read on here in another thread. The start jet is 80, needle standard 74, middle clip, AS out 1.5. no. 4 slide, 45 pilot. I haven't messed with the air screw yet but is this pointing towards a rich pilot mixture? Should it be kicking from no throttle? its set to tick over although its a little low.

    Needs new tyres. I noticed that the WR runs a 120 rear and the CR a 100. Is the 120 the best bet for a replacement size?

    Better get my Husky t-shirt now!

    sounds like its right on if its starting easy with the throttle on. maybe a touch rich, but thats how i like them long as theres no spooge or fouling..try leaning that air screw 1/4 or 1/2 turn.
