Hi all,
Just rebuilt my 2nd 78 cr125 starts first or second kick revs cleanly right through but put it in gear just doesn't want to pull. Any info welcome, had someone said my carb is to small its curently has a 28mm kehin would a 33mm make a difference.
Thanks
Malcolm

I would use the carb it was designed for with a thorough rebuild.

Clean bike.
Consider a new sleeve instead of used cyclinder. Hard to find one with decent life on it anymore.
