The thing I love about a 125 is that it's either on the power, or off the power.  You never see a fast guy do anything in-between on them, and it has an interesting and unique rhythm to it.  They just wail and scream and rev until you think it's about to explode, then when it gets into the air the entire world goes completely silent... then the instant it touches the ground it's right back to going ballistic (figuratively, not literally, of course).


Is this Maico a 440 or only a 400?  Well in all the confusion, I forgot myself.
But considering this is a 1978 Magnum, the best-handling bike in the world, you have to ask yourself one question.
Do you feel lucky, punk?

40 of them in the first corner sound better than f1 racing.

They have to bring back the 125 class like they have in Europe  :)
It is the best stepping stone for kids coming from 85's.

I never thought F1 was all that good of a sound.  I myself am more partial to top-fuel.

Oh  man  topfuel  is   nuts, f1  is  good to,but  I,ll  take  a  125  national   over  any sound. Brandon  Jesseman  was  right  on  James  Stewart  at  some  nationals, he  was  a  front  runner, alot  of  injuries. He  won  a  125  supercross  title, if I  remember  right. He  had  a  great  ride  in  98  at steel city  national, then  he  got  a  Suzuki  ride. So  he  had  RC  in  98,99,  then  Travis,Roncada,Tallon  Vohland a  250 gp guy, in 2000,01, then  James Stewart, Mike Brown,Grant  Langston.   He  raced  against  some  great  125  riders,  Suzuki  used  SRS  racing  pistons, there  very  good  I  had  1  in  a  01  RM125, SRS HGS pipe, trick silencer, and  a  Wolf ignition,carbon tech  reeds, stock  engine, didn,t need  porting.  Suzuki  trivia

I've watched that before, but it's a good one. I love the part at the end of the whoops where he splashes into the huge puddle, never lets up and still clears the small double at the end, good stuff. He is a fast guy who has had some bad breaks.

what i love about this video is his corner speed.  It just seems like he is going so much faster than any four stroke could ever go.
