That is a GG125 and it looks like it is very clean.

If you are into 125s it is a very nice flickable woods bike. They are great for younger and/or light riders. We have one as our backup bike and I rode it for a full day last trip (due to some tendonitis while I was sorting out my fork valving on my KYBs). I am 250lbs and we were in the TN mountains. It took me everywhere I wanted to go. They sip gas and are easy to start compared to the big GG bikes. The only complaint I had was that it gets loud when you are on the pipe. I rode it on the pipe a lot that day.

Depending on how it is set up now you may need to do a few mods to get more low end out of it. Squish, carb and ignition timing made a huge difference for the two we have in our group.

What you guys recommend for gear box oil? Looking at a fluid change and have been ready several different answers. Manual says 10w30 was reading good reviews on the rotella t6 5w40 syn. Also unsure on amount. Around 700cc is what i gather

Nice job on the weight loss. That is a considerable amount of weight to lose in one year. Hopefully not due to sickness.

Rotella for me. Enjoy the bike.
