New BD125-8, need some honest opinions
 

Just picked up a BD125-8 BOOM Monster (Ducati Monster clone), and was wondering if I could get user feedback from other owners? How reliable is it?

I’ve already ordered parts I thought necessary, including VM22 carb, upgraded battery, OEM Grom front and rear axle with nuts, upgraded 12.9 Zinc engine mount bolts, upgraded chain, 17T front sprocket, Jets for the VM22, upgraded air filter (pod style), better fork oil, and a petcock for the new carb. Call it overkill, but I want to keep this thing for a long time and would like to ride at least an hour daily.

Any thoughts? And how do they compare to the SSR Razkull? I’ve heard people call it a clone of that... but would that mean it’s a clone of a clone?

Thanks for the help, this is my first post.

Th Boom 125's are plenty reliable, the motor is damn near bullet proof, and it sounds like you have already hit all the potential problem areas .I would ride the hell out of it, i have had the Vader version for 2 years and it's "stunted" out and i have been very hard on it, and it still runs great.

That’s great news!! What all did you do to yours?

Lol, the list would be shorter if i made it on what i DIDNT do , lol. It has a 12 bar, a flat seat from thailand, a blue anodized aluminum swing arm, ohlins knockoff rear shock, stunt rear sets from Z &Z fab., new bars grips levers after market exhaust, VM22 carb and an oil cooler and a folding stunt shifter .If you search this site you can find some pics i posted when it was about halfway done , i cant upload now since the site went wonky bc i cant figure out how to resize them down small enough.

I made a list. I would also add a throttle tube. I have a random motionpro one after two oem ones broke.
