Its either a 1999 or 2000 Yamaha YZ 125... Basically what its doing is when i am riding in like 3rd gear before the power band sometimes it bogs out and basically stops accelerating and it doesn't really idle (i know MX bikes shoudln't really idle to begin with to much but it doesn't do it like it use to )

Check your reed valves for splitting or fraying. And do a compression check. 125's are hard on rings and it could be time for a topend.
