I've seen people buy large shrink wrap and use high temperature silicon sealant in the crack with shrink wrap around the boot to seal it.

Black permatex is oil resistant and works perfect. Clean it with brake clean first,and wipe off with clean rag , then when it dries press the permatex in cracks

I’m talking a temporary fix here guys to get you home in a situation or to run an engine when waiting for delivery of a new boot or whatever the circumstances may be. I’d not wanna make a half arsed job of attempting a ‘permanent fix’

Watch quite a few of these vids and always wondered why you check oil after you first start.

Nice collection of kawasakis I love Kawasaki allways has since a kid

Hey man I have a 94 cr80 and I was wondering why it was not running good but i watched your vid on the 400$ cr and the crank seal was my problem to thanks it helped me alot.

Sweet old bikes man! Get em runnin'!

once it starts your always excited and I could tell by his voice too

Damn that’s cool!!!! Right now I’m working on a 84 kx125!!

Can u show us all ur bikes u have got it would be mad...

Great videos bud, keep up the great work, cheers.

Nice bikes, reminds me of my old 86 kx80, fun and very fast bikes for the year, faster than a lot of newer bikes

Awesome content as always wonder how much you can get one shipped from the USA to the U.K. 🤔🤔🤔 I’d happily buy what ever you got left after making a good one 😉😎 plenty of parts still local here

Joe been watching a few years now !! Good jb love from the UK !!!

All my stuff is "semi-nice" also. Yes, that sounded amazing!

love this vid all the work u did to it and it still broke up i would of been swearing like crazy great jod i have watched about 10 of your vids love them

Rule #1, open air box before kicking bike over if it’s been sitting! Nothing like fur and poo to help the crank seals work lol!

2v timeeee. Let's go!

I like it when he checked for spark "oh baby"we got spark!!🤣🤣

I love these videos keep making them.

Another great video fella. Just curious where you order your parts from?

What more dirt bikes lol, Joe do you see many old British bikes over there 😉

Team kx hell yeah great video

I bought some liquid electric tape and that would work good for a quick fix on the carb boot so ya I'd try that it's liquid electric tape .godbless and stay safe

I bet the higher compression on first bike may have been from the oil you put in cylinder ...

I had an 85 kx 125 and it was a fun bike.

Very nice bikes Joe

Nice great buy

Where do you find these I’m not but a couple hours from Appleton and can’t find any dirt bikes ever

its crazy a few years back if a dirt bike looked like that with numbers you would walk away, both of them look like they have been rinsed their whole lives but now guys are falling over themselves to get one...anyone anything will do. i am surprised it had such good compression my next thought would be the gearbox is funked as bikes with good compression like that are usually still being ridden

That kx sounds really good you should just make 2 bikes out of them would be sick as and try do a really good job on this sounds like a solid engine

Nice sound

Another win

Sounds pretty good except for the silencer can't wait to see it rip

yooo bro you should give us a garage tour of all your bikes its been a long time snice you done one of those video's

nice one! You made me jump with the fake mouse bite!

Sweet old bikes

I would love to see a xr600r on the channel I have one they are awsome and very powerful bikes!!

Where and how do you find these deals

Pretty nice bike's

You go through bikes and quads faster then underwear nowadays. Keep up the good work.

Do you just buy these to get started or trying to restore them

Nice 😀

Tony Hawk might be interested in buying the one that comes with a half pipe.

Love it

Good deal on those old KX's

They are money pits ! I just completely restored a '96 KX125. I spent way to much money and time on that bike, and after finishing it March, I hated it. I guess I'm spoiled riding modern KTM's so I sold it a couple weeks ago at a loss but enjoyed building it. No more old bikes for me.

I have an '86 KX125 with a blown rear shock and have been looking for a replacement. If you have a spare, I'd love to buy it off of you!

Haha, compression test with throttle open, hmm, no carburetor on it, but it does have excellent compression.

Thanks videos Beautifull saludos desde Argentina no speak English jaja Very Good Videos

Pretty much cornered the Kawasaki dirt bike market !!!

Dude where you find these things?? Those are cool, I have a 89 kx125. I rebuild the whole bike. Also have a 89 kx125 complete roller minus the motor. Got it for $75 from a grandma lol. Would love to find a motor for that. Anyway do your thing, love the content.

Nothing wrong with that back sprocket 😂I'd turn it around and file it.. be grand for few spins...trust me iv done it 🤣😂..

Are those.the ones you bought before

They always do lol

Should have freshened frame would have looked sweat. Nice bye tho

It’s supposed to be 125-190 psi when it gets down towards 125 u ring it

Putting oil in the cylinder before doing a compression test will give you a false reading.

Damn man leave some bikes for the rest of us 😢

You should build both as twins then give one away

2 stroke, of course it will send.

Aaaooh just kidding😂😂

I traded away an 86 I had never ran it cause I didn’t dig far into it

.@Whoop!

the mice are big kawasaki fans .

Dude DC Plastics make replacement oem plastics for those bikes, just google DC Plastics man ay !

cut a round piece of steel diameter of inside the silencer leaving it big enough to flatten the outside edge say half inch.drill the centre of the steel same size as tube going through silencer.fit the round plate in end of silencer with tube goin through it then rivet the plat edge onto the silencer skin. silencer then repaired
