Hi all I'm just about done with the little red hot 125, so much for abit of fun its been alot of work haha....Just working on modifying the muffler and thats about it.Cant wait to fire the beast up. cheers Chris..

Hi Im done modifying the muffler saved cutting the deck and it will flow better as well,The outlet I made is also a baffle not just a straight thru outlet I dont want to go deaf mowing haha.Im also making a heat shield for the fuel tank, I dont want to risk it getting hot as its a plastic tank..Cheers Chris

again Chris, your attention to detail is just awesome!

Well done nice piece of work there. Far from standard. Is it running yet? I would love to see a YouTube clip of it. Good work.

Thanks guys,yep its ready to run just needs fuel... I will wait tell the weekend and make a vid of the 1st time I fire it up.Im betting 2nd pull lol... Cheers Chris

Ok we will wait. Hope it doesn't need a special fuel with more bang.

Here is a pic of the heat shield I made...Now bugger me it fired 1st pull!! lol... I am up loading a vid of 1st fire up..And so far not bad just a little Fine tune.. Go the mighty 2T Victa! haha ...Cheers Chris..

Pleased to hear it started easily for you.
Cant wait to hear it running in the video.
I am interested in how you did the baffle in your muffler.
Good on ya.

Bloody good feeling isn't it! You gotta love it when a plan comes together!
Well Done! I like your work.

Well done chris125 waiting for the YouTube link now.Also I curious to know about the stand you have it on in some of your pictures.Is it something you made? or is it something that was made to hold mowers? I'd be interested to know about it.Thanks

Blumbly the stand is for Moto X bikes as they dont have a stand comes in handy for mowers...well if it works here is the link to the Red hot little 125cc Victa. [video][/video]

OH my lord it looks better on video than it does in the pictures.So how does the stand work? Could you take some pictures of it? I think I'd like to design and make something like that to help me out.

G'day Mark i should have taken a pic of the baffle but they are an easy and cheap thing to make and work really well at keeping noise down

Hi all here is a better vid of it running... [video][/video]

Love the video's Chris,
I will have a go at the muffler baffle one day.
I have never hear of the term "4 stroking" before. I will have to look that one up.

I prefer the 125cc, I did one up for dad and it screamed and just ate grass.
Here is a picture of it.

Mark, on the subject of 2 stroking, 4 stroking, 6 stroking etc. you might try this thread:

Undder no load at full revs they sound like crap some call this 4 stroking which is a good thing nice and rich its like they are holding back all mowers that are 2T do it..Put them undder load and now they can use and need all that fuel to make power and start to hum...To lean with no load at full revs sure they would sound great and rev but undder load would have no power and also blow up in no time lol...We have all been mowing and ran out of fuel just before it does and fuel leans out revs pick up quite a bit....

Yep Mark I like the old 125's as well..Nice mower you did for your dad they are a great workhorse I have the same mower but its a 160..Cheers Chris

Love the videos of the 125 , you've done a great job !!
