Hi all, as the title says i'll soon be into strip and rebuilding my GP 125 project..

Having only done LD's so far, what is the absolute must have list of things to upgrade engine wise.. I've got sticky's book but things must have moved on since the publication.

I've got a 175 barrel and a 150 head to use.. for a bit of extra waft.. i want to go 12v so which kit is best ...go easy i am a novice :D .

Ta Jason

Just my opinion, BGM stator with Indian flywheel (shortened fins), Ducati CDI & regulator, MB wiring loom.

Hi Jason,
I would say ditch the 150 head or get it machined to suit the 175 barrel.

all the best
John
