i would run a 128 to start with, any exhaust can be dialled in to any carb with the right jetting

It was advised for him to get a bigger main jet as soon as possible but it looks like he didn,t bother. now its dropped on my doorstep to repair. cheers :)

why not use a jl3?

would have thought a 125 main would be ok - ran a 118 main on an indian big bore for a very long time and was thrashed to within an inch of its life

only my personal opinion though
