My 1992 RM 125 often bogs at low rpm's. For example i went trail riding (not exactly a rm specialty) and every time i would climb a fallen tree or ride up into the woods i would have to keep pumping the throttle. As soon as i got home i cleaned the spark plug and checked the timing and it wasnt that. My friends have 125's also (CR/KX) and they say they have the same problem but not as bad as me. I also mixed the gas with a little less oil (not much) because i thought i might be running too rich. It wasnt that either. Other people had told me to get torque reeds i think my bike should be able to travel at a low rpm without them. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Stephen
