And while at it probably also consider, that two-strokes - especially
such little ones as the CR125R - have zilch, zero, nada, null engine
braking and might even seize if operated for prolonged times at
elevated revs with the throttle closed.

My 1994 CR250R _did_ idle, of course. As long as I wanted it to. Because
air filter and carb were clean, bike jetted properly and I was running
decent premix. 1:50 fully synthetic IIRC.

Better hope you get what you want before you stop wanting it.
