Default New to Me 00 RM125, Need Some Help.

Like the title says I just bought a 2000 RM125 from a friend of mine, This is my first bike and first two stroke so take it easy on me, the bike has been sitting for a while and my buddy says it doesnt get spark and that the CDI is shot.

I have not had a chance to mess with the bike yet its still on the back my truck lol, What should be the steps to check where the electrical problem(s) is (other than a plug change)?

Also what is the correct Fuel/Oil Mixture? my buddy said 32:1 but I just want to double check. Im going to tear into the carb tomrrow since its been sitting I want to clean it out good and ditch the old gas thats in it. Anyhelp would be highly appreciated, I dont know much about dirtbikes since im a quad guy. Like I said any help will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

Later,...Robby
