Put this archive of mods together a while back if anyone's interested. I am currently putting together a new archive documenting the recent mods which I'll post soon.

You've put an extraordinary amount of work into this! :thumbup: How are you setting up the fuelling? On a dyno?

All running fine at the moment, setup has been done using throttle position and air fuel ratio so far but yes eventually I need to get it on the dyno but none local I'm afraid!.

Hello Dave , are you familiar with the 125's ?
been looking at them in view of getting one but not sure
what they are like or where to get spares from for one.

I think the early 125 used a Yamaha engine so would imagine it was very relable and I seem to remember that early ones were also carbureted. Basically same frame as the 500. I use Haines for Fantic spares, friendly staff, good prices quick delivery and can source unlisted parts, just give them the part No and they'll get it for you. Here's their link.

I doubt it, I'm looking at road tyres now!

Watched Neevsy's review on Youtube of his wife's Caballero, he clearly loves it.

Makes me wonder why I started modifying it!
