The VHM AA33049 cylinder head is designed for KTM EXC 125, SX 125, SXS 125 from 2001 to 2006. The cylinder head closes off the top of the cylinder and forms the combustion chamber. On a two-piece VHM head, the chamber is a machined insert that can be swapped in a few minutes to adapt the engine's compression.
Key features
- Two-piece cylinder head: body and interchangeable combustion chamber insert.
- Compression adjustable by swapping the insert, without removing the cylinder.
Specifications

Who is it for?
- Original head damaged by pinking (detonation), cracked or warped.
- You want to match the compression to the fuel, the terrain or a tuned engine.
- You're after a smoother or snappier engine without changing the cylinder.
Good to know
The insert is chosen to suit your engine and your fuel: a smaller chamber volume raises compression, which may call for a higher-octane fuel. Always check the squish when fitting.
Fitting tips
- Clean the cylinder mating face without scratching it.
- Fit new O-rings and grease them lightly so they stay in place.
- Check the squish (gap between piston and head) with solder wire before riding.
- Tighten the head in a criss-cross pattern, in several stages, to the recommended torque.
- Fit a new spark plug and refill the coolant.
