Hiya.
Suzuki RG125 Gamma! Awesome machine!
I dont have much knowledge on these bikes, but ive done some research for you and have come up with this:
The bike is restricted using the factory CDI Unit. To derestrict it completely, cut (disconnect) the Black and White wire from the Unit.
This will let you hit that holy grail of 100mph (give or take a few mph).
This mod alters the bike from 12bhp to around 33bhp.
BE WARNED!
This modification can lead to engine failure because it runs the whole thing a lot harder and revs higher.
Ive also heard that the power valves can be a bit tempremental and give up the ghost reasonable easily.
Dont know how true that is, but its something to keep in mind.
Hope that helps!

Some more information....
I dont know if this is strictly for the Gamma, but its info none the less.
Throttle Cables
You can get some extra oomph from the machine by shortening the throlttle cable a little. This simply just opens the valve further when you grab a handful and gives you an extra little boost.
On CDI Derestriction
The Black/White wire is a tried and tested method. Apparently it gives 23bhp not 33bhp like I mentioned above. Unfortunately, it can seriously limit the life of your engine. There have been reports of an engine not making the 20,000 mile mark. Not all bad I guess, but you try and get a replacement engine that hasnt been thrashed by somebody else who needed to feel the need for speed!!
The Black/White wire is located on the longer of the two connectors that lead to the CDI Unit. My suggestion is that, if you are gonna go ahead with this modification, that you fit a bullet male/female connector or a mini on/off switch so you can restrict the engine again. This really is only if you feel that the bike is too unstable OR if you think a copper is on your back.
Ooh hark at me. Im all knowledgable now! Woooo

Depends on the model of gamma, if its an older one (pre 1991) the cdi trick doesn't work.
There is plenty that do though!

Yeah, sorry about that. I just had a quick flick through a load of posts, didn't check the dates.
Feel free to lay it to rest again.
