खरीदारों को क्या पता होना चाहिए
Power Valve Maintenance Critical
The AETC (Automatic Exhaust Timing Control) power valve system is a key performance feature but requires regular cleaning every 3,000-5,000 km. Carbon buildup causes significant power loss and is the most common issue found on neglected examples.
Watch for Seized Engines
Being a 2-stroke, improper oil mixture or a failing oil pump can cause catastrophic engine seizure, so always verify the autolube system works correctly before buying. A compression test and evidence of regular maintenance history are essential checks.
Rising Collector Value
Clean, original examples are increasingly sought after as one of the last true liquid-cooled 2-stroke 125s homologated for road use, with well-maintained bikes holding or appreciating in value. Matching-numbers bikes with original bodywork command a strong premium.
