Cougar- you sound like you are on the right path in sleuthing around. The well tuned 125a is pretty much a miser on 15%.
Old Fart- and a manly way to ride if there ever was one! I envy the winter fun you were having out there. I like the way you told your tale without whining. Guess you had a face shield on as you didn't mention a frozen face.
By the way, what are your Saito idle speeds with wooden props? Did you get anything reliable below 2000 rpm?
