Honda CRM 125 warming up

[wik91]

My friend bought a CRM 125 in top condition. Well the bike was sitting in a garage for 4 years and when we came to see the bike it fired up from 1st kick. We warmed the bike on idle for about 5 mins and than for 10 mins friend was slowly cruising on it. After 15 minutes of warming up and not reving it higher than 5000rpms i tried to rev it up on the 8000+ but on 7000 it was like a rpm blockade. Just wouldn't go over 7000. Was the bike not warm enough or there is something wrong with the engine?

Friend buyed the bike because it looks like it just came out of the store.

How long do it takes to warm up a 2 stroke 125?

I think the CRM's have a tach

Jesus the CRM is a road legal bike and has all those electronics so there is a thing that shows RPMs.

Well me and my friend are going to strip down the bike to clean the dust from standing in garage for 4 years. Swap oil and gas, and go for a fast ride to bring the engine to life.

It is one hell of a trail bike it is amazing that 98' bike can look as it just got out of the shop. It is an derestricted version so it has plenty of power!

My KDX200 usually takes about 10-15 min's to warm up.
