I've had similar on other bikes when the high pressure filter is blocked in the injection system. I assume these have got one.

hi mate not sure ? It's a carbed model

Ahh won't have a high pressure filter then, but I'd still check the carb is getting enough fuel.
Could also be partly blocked jets in the carb, 125s are more prone to that as the holes are so small

Sounds like a fuel problem.

Is this a 125 or 1000 ?

ho mate sorry it's a 125cc and it's fresh fuel the good stuff I usually do 3 tanks of regular unleaded then 1 of the premium I tried changing the egzhaust to stock still the same and then swapped it back carbs are both at 2 3/4 turns out

Sounds like a stretched chain, tight spot on the chain and/or worn sprocket.

Is the chain tensioner towards the end of the adjustment range ?

Can you post a picture of the sprocket teeth.
