Its rubbish. Waste of money all of them

 

Is the 140 or 180 kit worth it? Out of curiosity...

 

Dont know what a 140 kit is but none are worth it really. They only give you like 20bhp max lol

 

Cheers - We'll just have to get an R6 instead then, huh

 

Com'on think of it, our standard BHP is around 12 at the wheel...
With a 182 malossi kit/200 kit (no malossi tho'), PCV, Aftermarket exhaust, aftermarket air filter and some other things our bikes have a possibility to pass 25-27 BHP at the wheel (I think )

That's over twice the power = plenty of more fun!... It won't change top speed very much to, maybe 10-12mph extra... But the torque, much faster from what I've seen!

How much would that set you back though, money wise?

 

No problem,
It's a bit expensive, but I love the R125, so I can't imagine not loving a r182 fully equipped

 

I think you have a reasonable point there!
I will slowly but surly be upgrading - with all the new laws coming in and what not, looks like i will need to keep this bike for longer than 1st though anyways!
Upgrading is the better option tbh <3

 

Worth a grand over taking your test? Right...

 

i will second that i would do my test with that cash

 

iknow them guys they sort me out when i go there and they work on all my bike
they can sort the 182 kit for you they did my one

 

they did say they would do it for me - How much did you end up paying? cause i will need to start saving lol cause the insurance for this bike is a killer on my cash flow atm XD

 

can you in any way justify spending that money on a r125

Haven't read threads but how much does this cost?

You're looking minimum £650 if you want it all done properly and all the correct gear and set up

 

What's that exactly for then?

Jheeeeze! Then aftermarket exhaust on top?

 

Jheeeeze! Then aftermarket exhaust on top?

That 650 is just for the malossi and pcv without fitting then you have filter, power cam, then exhaust

 

From what I know the

Bore kit is £479
Cam Shaft is £219
K&N Air Filter is £30

Total Without Fitting is £728

 

6-700 for a marginal increase, just doesnt seem worth it to me..

 

Waste of time and money. Better to do your test and get a 600.
Not to mention you won't be able to sell it back on as a 125 unless you revert it all back. So in that sense, you're seriously cutting down your target market. Only people who are willing to have a fiddled with R182 and people who would, for some reason, prefer one over a bigger bike will actually buy it.
It will also void any warranty you have on it, and could cause some pretty bad engine wear in a short amount of time.

Do your test, save your money.

 

Bikerboy never had a problem so this is not true. Also the warranty that yamaha supply isn't worth the paper it's printed on. If they can they will get out of replacing anything under warranty.

R182 is mad fun I use to leave the stock r125 for dead pretty much any other 125
But on a serious level I would do my test than waste that much cash again if I could rewind time I would do this f the 182kit and buy the r6 but I did it the other way 182 test then r6 but make my money on selling the kit so I didn't loose anything

Didn't have a problem runs fine wouldn't worry about warranty

 

Exactly, you have experienced it so you can say.

 

It could cause damage to the piston and I'm sure the rings would need replacing more often.
Definitely not worth the money for a bit more acceleration and maybe 10mph added on to the top end.

Damage what Naa man I redline the crap out my bike ride it hard everyday full throttle every where when I take off the 182 kit the ring and seals piston still look new

Exactly, loads of people say loads of things without actually really knowing or owning one of these kits. Makes me laugh how they all seem to be experts because they're going on other peoples opinions.

 

West London yamaha sorted me out . But yeah you have to basically convince them it's a manufacturing fault

Did they

 

Yeah tbh it weren't my fault but they seemed cool with me, Rik especially

 

Well they brought it in twice for a manufacturers recall.... The sensor on the kick stand sensor were dodgy and 'may' not cut engine off when still down.
And another to do with incidents involving topple crash 125s allowing fuel to leak all over the place.
Lastly they serviced it for the 600mile Mark and tightened a bolt in too tight connecting the nose cone and fairing just beneathe that which meant the plastic was coming apart

You on about bush Yamaha them guys cool no problem with them

 

Has anyone heard of or tried the Athena 183cc kit for our bike ??
