Update since the last month: Got a little farther on the bike, and keep running into more problems. Lol.
Got everything together engine wise, start the engine, and it's noisier than hell. I figured the starter clutch was stuck engaged, as that's what it sounded like. Decided to just swap the engine out for a 140, and rebuild the 125 for later. Inspected the engine after removing it from the frame, and find to find out, the flywheel was hitting the pickup on the new stator I installed. I spun the engine over a few times to make sure everything cleared, but I guess higher centrifugal forces ate up the gap that was there.
Oh well, I now have a 140 to install. My other problem is the front brake. I'm trying to go to a 4 pot caliper, because reasons. Lol. Anyway, I've gone through two setups, and both have something wrong. Spacing radially and laterally. I'm looking into a 3rd bracket for the caliper. Other than that, the bike just needs the engine in, and it's ready to run and tune.
