electrical problems
low battery , faulty battery. these batterys are fairly poor and if left for long periods without riding can go flat and fail to recharge again needing replacement i used to keep old battery but always found when i come to use them they were completely dead beyond reviving
dont know why this is must be some scientific reason for it but i have no idea .
try to run the bike regular or remove battery for trickle charging for periods of long parking or replace battery if you just bought bike and struggling with power.
Another problem can be faulty contacts in the wiring loom (block connectors) i always slit these put an electrical contact cleaner in them to ensure good contacts throughout the whole loom.
id do this yearly as rain , moisture can affect these joints causeing a white powderery stuff to form again no idea what this stuff is.
if the bike fails the turn over but clicks and you battery is well charged , this is likely to be the relay situated near the radiator this is a device to turn the low current circuit of the starter switch into the higher current circuit of the starter motor but they are shit
i hate relays tbh they seem to cause more problems than enough especially on modern cars .
basically this about it ive always found if you buy an old rs125 as long as the compression is good (ie piston rings good)
if you clean out the carb and jets ,replace old fuel with new fresh fuel , fully charge the battery or replace , make sure all electrical connectors are cleaned and fitted nicely add a new saprk plug then there should be no problem firing up .
