For the record, this is a 2 cylinder 125cc 2 stroke motor. (you don’t have to pre-mix the oil. it does it for you.

it’s rated at about 15hp, and tops out between 70-80 depending on wind direction and if i’m crouched over the gas tank, etc…. in a tail wind wearing tighter clothing and a full faced helmet, i actually got 85 one time on the freeway…

I’ll preface my question with this……

If i wanted to go 220 mph down the freeway, obviously i’d buy a hayabusa.

That’s not what i’m looking for. I would however like to add an extra 3- 5 horsepower if possible to potentially help me keep speed when climbing a hill with my girlfriend on the back.

I will say this. I have ridden a LOT of bikes, and this bike handles better than any bike i have ever ridden to date. This includes Ninjas, CBR’s, etc. it may not have a high top speed, but i can take a hair pin with no problems…

sorry.. back on topic..

Parts are NOT easy to find for this bike. they stopped producing parts for it 20+ years ago. back in the day, they had lots of performance parts for them, but finding one that specifically fits this bike is going to be nearly impossible… anything i do like exhaust or intake will have to be fabricated and made to fit by hand (which i can do to some extent).

SO… given that, what can i do to make it a little more powerful?

For the record also, it’s a 6v system…

Thanks in advance for the legitimate and helpful answers.
hmm.. thanks…. yeah i wasn’t sure if the 185 had the same style motor. i think the 250′s are different. i’ll have to check into that. i would be ok with upgrading it to a 185 if it mounts the same way.
– the t185 has a different style motor that requires it to have a frame under the motor, but like you said, i may be able to make the barrels fit… i’ll look into that.

first.. take of the pipes & clean them inside .. the cleaner the better.

do the same to the air filter.. Air in ..air out.. makes a difference.

you can remove the barrels & polish & match the intakes & exhaust.

have a look & see if you can find some expansion chambers for the bike ..

not sure how far you want to modify it??

you could also look at over boring the cylinders too..

(from memory I think Suzuki had a 185 twin 2 stroke as well.. so you may be able to find a motor or barrels from one of those & make them fit??)

The good: approx 6,300 miles, very clean and apparently well maintained (don’t know right now what might be available as far as service records & much of it was done by the first two owners themselves), no general rust other than minimal surface rust at exhaust attachment points & none inside original tank, brand new rear tire, 50% tread on front, brakes in good shape, no apparent leaks including fork seals, paint is glossy and seat cover is subtle, the sprockets and chain supposedly are nearly brand new (haven’t done any verification). I test drove it and it revs and shifts fine but idles a bit low/rough (it’s currently located at an elevation above where it was supposedly tuned up so the air pressure/thickness I imagine does affect it. It’s enough of a difference to make your ears pop a bit)

The bad:

It went down once. The right front turn signal broke out of the fairing & had to be epoxied back into place. The turn signal is quite scraped up. The corner of the upper fairing right by the turn signal got ground down pretty good and is now flat rather than pointy. The right muffler also got scraped up really good. The left muffler is covered with some molten boot sole (I’ve previously been able to polish that kinda stuff off of chrome exhaust piping so perhaps it’ll work on this, too)

The Blue Book value is $1425 in excellent shape with significantly more miles. At such an already low value, how much do the low miles add and how much does the cosmetic condition take away from that price? I offered $1000 and was told $1200 is the max they’d take because supposedly that’s what they bought it for just a couple of months ago (changed mind on motorcycle riding). The bike’s been listed for about 2 weeks and the only other option they currently have is a guy who wants to pay $500 down and then make payments (they would only go for a $900 down payment from the guy).
I meant "$1200 is the least they’d take" of course.
No, the husband doesn’t want his wife to ride it after all because he nearly got into an accident while riding it.

Them people are out of their minds thinking that they will get that kind of money for an almost 17 yr old bike ,please.Like my friend Sportbike said,800 max and that would be about 200 more than what I would give them .Also point out to them that you can get a road worthy helmet for 100 bucks.
