Agility 125 / Re: Uphill driving, no power (gas throttle full open)

Does it cut out and you have to release the accelerator and power on again to get it going? I had this same problem for months and it turns out it is a dodgy "fuel tap"... Easily fixed by bypassing it, under the seat. I also mostly got it when going up hill under full throttle and with a passenger.

Agility 125 / Re: Agility City 125 Stops accelerating under full throttle above 50

Thank you to everyone for suggestions. I thought I would post the result in case anyone else ever has similar troubles.


After months of troubleshooting... the solution for me was to bypass the "fuel tap"... the vacum powered fuel switch thing under the fuel tank. It appears that this was somehow restricting the fuel supply under heavy load.

Does anyone know any way to get a bit more poower out of these bikes? Any EGR type things that can be removed? Is there a cat in the exhaust? I do have a weird screw in the midle of the exhaust heatshield that when removed makes it blow but it has no affect on speed or power, any idea what this is for? I'm happy for it to be running properley, it was getting tedious. But I know you guys are experts so any ideas welcome!

Thank you again guys.

I'm currently running it on a strong concentration of Redex fuel system cleaner. It seems to be ok with it in the tank, weirdly. I haven't done the standard test of up the steep dual carriageway yet though... kind of living in hope and ignorance ;)

I'll let this run through and keep speed down for a while... then do high speed full throttle; if that fails i'll check air filter, replace plug (thank you for heads up on ally head) and clean jet. Yes it has been stood, 3 years and only 1400km. I'm surprised that petrol would gunk up in that time but my other bike is an XR400 which had been stood for a few years and I had to strip the petrol tap and filter from it because it had gone jelly like, so not that surprised. Oh and I'm running this on the 97 ron super unleaded with supposed cleaning additives too.

Many Thanks!!
Hopefully if it all works out someone else will benefit from this too.

Sadly this didn't work. It seems worse on long hills and seems to only happen under full throttle. It's so frustrating. The power comes back on a bit if I release the throttle and put it back on again but then goes off quicker and quicker until the bike is going slowly. Leave it without throttle for a little while and it will pick up for a bit further. Grrrr.

Anyone?

As simple as that? OK, will do, thank you!!! I read about the venting/vacuum issue but assumed not on mind as I have a tiny hole in the cap.

Off out on it today so will try that when the tank isn't so full! :)

Thanks for replies!!!

Agility 125 / Agility City 125 Stops accelerating under full throttle above 50 -SOLVED AT LAST
« on: July 14, 2017, 06:38:28 PM »
Please help, I am new to these bikes, I bought an Agility 125 City and it's ok except that if I ride on full throttle and above 50mph after about a minute of riding fine... it cuts acceleration, taking the throttle off and back on puts it back on but then it cuts again, and again, and again until going about 30mph! It's driving me crackers! It has only done 1500km from new, anyone any idea please? I've spent hours looking for an answer to this online, to no avail.
