Where did the power go?

People told me not to take a 125cc down to Morocco. They said "It won't last!". But I didn't listen.

On reflection they might have been right you know. Since the bike has been fixed, I have noticed that there is a power problem with it. I might be being paranoid, but it seems about 10% down on top speed; and this is after the bike has been lightened.

I suspect I wore the pistons a little taking it up the mountain fully loaded.

People told me not to take a 125cc down to Morocco. They said "It won't last!". And damn it, I'm still not listening! Go little bike, pump your heart out. Next stop, Marrakech!
