Stock exhaust? Normal street tires? Maybe high 14s/low 15s on the motor and high 13s/low 14s on the 125 shot.

To follow up on IHI's post, I don't know what size the stock cam is in your engine but its likely pretty lame. A better cam, some decent cylinder heads and an intake could really wake that engine up.
You'd lose about half a point of compression if you switch to 64cc heads, but you can more than make up for it with the added flow.
