Rebuild time
Hey all
I got a KX125 1989... and I'm rebuilding her this winter. i'll be asking questions as they may and most likely will come.
here's where I am...
moved the bike to the basement,
drained gas and radiator fluid out of bike
took off all plastics, washed, took off stickers etc.
radiator off
air box off
carborator off..
basically, my bike is all over the basement in lots of pieces that need cleaning.
my main goal is to see how bad my main bearing is. i'm convinced its crap by now cause im running rich and couldnt get it to start on my planned last ride
so i'll update here if anyone cares... and if you have any advise for me please post!
thanks!
