Well i figured i would start a small build thread..

2004 Kawasaki KLX125L...

So when i got it the rear hub was all jacked up... and i rigged it together .. and it held for awhile...intill my g/f got bored with just riding it easy... so i told her to ride it like she wants to... it held for a few weeks... lol...

So far ...

Changed oil and oil filter
rear brakes
cleaned the carb
new spark plug
new air filter
hand grips
New chain
new front sproket

i have a new hub,spokes,rear sproket,sproket bolts and nuts,rear wheel bearing and seals

Im going to get some pics of it in a couple days when i pull it out....


Also looking for an exhaust for it... i have a perfect header... and i have the muffler ... but the muffler is all broke .. im going to try to weld it up...:S lol i dunno how that will work...

and if anyone has any ideal on a correct jetting to make this thing run right help a brother out lol...

Its super low geared has a 57 tooths on the rear i went with a 51 this time.. only one they offered besides the 57

its shaft drive....that chain is to throw people off from steeling it...they walk up and see the chain and say phok that we aint steeling a dirtbike you gotta push :P

you didnt notice the custom clutch handle did ya... huh....huh... you want one dont you...:devil:... haha i leaned it up against a tree while it was warming up one day and when i came outside it was almost laying down on its side.. and the clutch handle was all fugged up... my g.f was :rant::blah:....it was an honest mistake...then she picked the bike up and said :thinking:...pointed at the kickstand....

who woulda thunk it... dirt bikes do have kick stands :D:moon:

Those grips almost look like the old Oakley 3 grips I ran on my bmx bike 100 years ago...

Oh my F'n God!
I can't believe we bought those things. :lol:
I used mine until I got back to the bike store with $6 to buy another pair of regular grips.... those things were horrible.:rant:

:puke: now that we have that outta the way....arent those bike supposed to have make believe rad shrouds, and srockets. heres a few tips :prof:

1) fix POS KLX125
2) sell POS KLX125
3) buy AWSOME RM/KX/CR 80/85
