Hi I need a new carb for me bike because mine is trashed i've found 2 that'll fit 1 off a 50cc scooter which looks pretty much the same as my carb and 1 off a Zongshen zs 250 gs which looks like mine but the throttle is on the wrong side and it hasn't got a auto choke I'm askin which one would be better because I've put a K & N filter on and a bigger exhaust and my engine is runnin to lean

If you can't refurbish the original at all, it might be worth trying the one from the scooter first as it sounds like the best fit. There are some "universal" type carbs which are suitable for a number of engines between 50-150cc, so you might be lucky with it. I suspect the 250 carb might be over-jetted for your 125, but - again - you could be lucky, especially with the freer-breathing mods you've done. No easy way to tell, I'm afraid, and you may need to change the jetting regardless of which carb body you fit. I'd be tempted to have a word with my local bike shop and see what they think before trying either replacement.
