Guest Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 ive got a 91 suzuki gs 125 and i have read that i should be able to reach around 65-70 mph from it but for some reason i can only get 50mph from mine and thats really revving it in 5th gear. anyone got any ideas? Quote
Mightycaz Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 5th is your cruising gear, keep it in 4th to about 50 or until it sounds like its gonna blow up. My intruder does the same thing.... Quote
fazerboy Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 ahahah there you are has it had a service?all the simple things add up,if 4 or 5 things arent spot on it will all add up and maybe this is what the problem is.checkoil/filter/chain/plugs and so on and mybe it will solve the problem if not,then i dunno cos im thick with mechanics Quote
Guest Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Enough is enough.If the OP would like to PM me to decide whether to repost this or just delete the smart arse replies I will do which ever he wants.PPF Quote
Guest Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 5th is for cruising, drop into 4th, and stay in the gears longer (higher revs, you may then get to your holy grail. other than that, not much the GS125 is a 4 stroke so all the 2 stroke goodies are off limits.. i had the GS125 ES.. Quote
DeeJ Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Give it a good service, oil change and oil filter, air filter, spark plug, fuel filter, clean the carb.You will be amazed what at what a service can do Quote
Guest Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 hey thanks for your response. i do revv it high throughout the whole gear range. i mean the revv limitor starts around 9000rpm and i always revv it upo to about 8000 before knocking it up a peg and in 4th i can get about 45 then in 5th it will trundle up to about 50ish Quote
Guest Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 hi yeah thanks for your replys, ive ordered a hotter plug, new oil and air filter, its just had a oil change and i think i will tighten the chain a tad. but if not then i will just have a good days engine polish i think. and yeah i know u answered the question erlier. sorry i reposted cuz i had 2 idiots wasting time and taking the piss out of my 'TEEN TEXT CHAT'.
