Great video! I recently picked up a 2000 RM125 and I am definitely running rich. Lots of spooge. I am trying to lean it out and was wondering if loosening my air screw would help? Loosening it more would bring more air to my knowledge but was trying to see how much to loosen it? I'm in the midwest and it's been quite hot this summer. Any recommendations on number of turns?
Hi, thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed! I’d first try doing some research on injection oil ratios. I’ve always run 32:1, which is pretty rich, but I’d rather have some spooge than a smoked engine! Best of luck.

Hello, can anyone answer my question? the solenoid works, but I don't understand when it should do it. When activated, it closes the circuit, for what and when that is the question. I need help. Thank you
Jorge, I’m not entirely sure. But, from what I’ve read, the TPS alters the timing at different throttle openings and rpm. The solenoid valve gives the mixture extra fuel to help the carb through certain lean spots. The solenoid valves opens and closes the power jet. The power jet is the jet (beside the main and pilot) to add fuel to the mixture. The solenoid closes the power jet between 2000-3000 RPM and 9250-10500 RPM. Hope this helps.
It appears with some research that they’re both 38mm. As for size, they may be compatible. However, look up “RevZilla RM125 jetting, as the specs might differ.” Also not sure if the Keihin/Mikuni have different bolt patterns, but maybe worth a shot depending on the price.
@@backcountrybuilds its easiest to get it on the airbox, then the intake/reeds, dont tighten but rotate towards you and put the slide in. This makes it far less work, especially if you are having multiple carb issues..

i’m 30 seconds into the video and can tell your someone who i’m going to watch again. your very helpful thank you.
Oh, hell yeah. I appreciate that. Thanks for watching

@@backcountrybuilds I run Amsoil Dominator at 32:1! Bottle recommendation is 50:1 while Suzuki recommends 32:1. Maybe less oil would help spooge?
@@Shooobe it’s a 2smoker, let her spooge!
@@backcountrybuilds you’re right lol. I’ll stop worrying about it. Thanks for the help!
what is the electrical cable coming off the carb?

@@backcountrybuildsThanks. I got a new carb and it didn't have one so i left it unplugged and haven't noticed a difference.
I wish I never would have sold my 99 Rm 125. I loved that bike
I wanna keep this thing forever and hang it from the ceiling so I can stare at it
What about this tiny 55 jet that came in my rebuild kit?
What state are you located in? Asking for the climate
Got a 2001 Suzuki rm125. Been looking for a new Carb. Found one from a 2005. Says it “will fit” was wondering if you know if true
Yes it's true 👍
I actually do not know
You said a 172 was running it lean I got the same bike and I'm having the same problem so you have a 175 main jet what is your pilot jet

Mines been running like shit and i took the carb apart to find my jet is 170 is it possible its that i need to also swap it to a 175?

Can you tell me what does that solenoid do? I don't understand its function. thanks and regards

What carb can I put on a rm125 2008 can’t find anything

Try this! Best of luck.
My 2000 suzuki rm125 choke isn’t closed completely is it normal or what?
Having it slightly open should be the resting position, if I remember correctly. I think if it closed completely, the bike would stall.
can you message me i have the same bike and i have a question
will a 1996 fit on a 2001 rm carb ??

@@backcountrybuilds ur the goat my boy thanks for the response
mm of the carburetor?
From what I’ve read and heard, I believe it is a 38mm.
Kind of unnecessary taking the rear subframe off, you can push the airbox in on itself and remove only the carb.
That’s true. I always have trouble with getting the carb boot back on without the pursuasion of the subframe. Smart move though
