Haha i buy used bikes with intention to open then up straight away. While checking If it run good but mostly i check shocks and lingages. Those are good i take it. Never trusting someones hours on piston storys.

He has the garage, the body and the brains! Love you dude, hoping to be doing projects as such on my own someday, sadly deals arent as good around here.

Man that glass/sandpaper re-surfacing trick is money.

@@KincadePavich I highly request this video, im currently looking for a trail bike and a project bike . I’ve been watching your videos along with some others, trying to educate myself on how to work on bikes. Myself and Im sure many more would highly appreciate a video talking about what to look for when shopping for used bikes . I’ve seemed to find a lot for a good price that say they run good but how do I know I’m not gonna run into issues like these such as previous mechanics making non beneficial add ons/repairs. Great videos keep it up!!

That CR is definitely an old crusty deamon of the dirt.... Looking forward to what you make out of it. KX is dope!

21:26 some people may not agree with me on this but when im working with stuck hardware on the vice i smack the vice handle with the mallet or sledge gets those seized bolts every time

finally !!!!!!!!!!!!!! a sand blaster

We've had a few '02 KX's. That year is really the best of all from '97-'06 - best motor character for sure. A "must do" however, is to put '03 triple clamps on it. Makes it a whole new bike that can actually turn with the front. A friend who was a race mechanic gave us all the goods on making KX's haul, so we implemented a few of his suggestions with great results...

This was absolutely awesome and best work done... the bike looks so amazing

Great to see some ones project is going nicely along. My fram and engine just fell down after i painted so i’ll be starting alllll over again

I love your restoring videos!

Such a great pleasure watching your videos! you've made an Awesome Job man

Bro, i had a 96 xr600r that was street legal when i bought it in 2015, and 90% of the spokes wouldnt tighten or loosen. I was broke at the time so i just rode it anyway. The rear wheel ended up exploding, cracking the wheel and luckily i was only going about 10mph in a turn. Lowsided and even with jeans on my entire shin was skinless! Always check old wheels and spokes!!!!

I'm a 4-stroke guy (mainly because of the sound and power) but, I love Dirtbikes, none the less. I loved this video. It's a skill I wish I could do and love watching any who does.

Love this build ❤

Yup! The project that is too big to fail! You did the right thing. You upped the resale value.

Pro tip, when resurfacing a cylinder try to go in an infinity symbol type pattern to avoid shaving too much off from one side, as you’ll find your fingers might weigh down one side more than the other. Also, make sure to regularly clean your sand paper, the shavings can build up and glaze the surface, reducing the bite on the gasket. Love the rebuild, not to much or to little!

Wow. Inspired to go wrench now. Great work

Great job the bike looks beautiful

Even tho I watched every episode, i enjoyed watching this again. You're a good dude and you have a great eye for making bikes look great. God help you with that CR tho that's proper roached, haha. Look forward to the build.

Hi, Use 1/4" to 3/8" green tempered shelf glass. Make sure is is on a perfectly flat surface. I use an old counter top. You need copper jaws on your vice. I'll make a pair for you. I have that (20) vice/s..Great job on the rebuilds. I'm 62, Hobby machinist. I'm looking for a Cr250r late model. I had 3 and sold all of them, back in the day. Urrgh! Serb or croat? Redbud is our track.

That kx looks like a new bike,well done on that job. Cant wait to see the CR gettin done,looks like a lot of work needed there but your the man.

Excellent work bro

Can't wait for the CR. The black looks mean :)

If you ever have to cut a sleeve or even a bearing off, cut it with a die grinder but don’t go all the way through, then take a cold chisel to your cut and it’ll usually split along that cut and won’t damage the shaft, I use this all the time at work.

Some nice tips and tricks I'm going to use on my '00 KX250 ... though I actually love the raw aluminum color of the wheels, I hate the black on my new bike. 😀Love that case sticker, I'll be grabbing one of those for sure.

Loved this series man! 🔥

I have to say this is about what to expect every time you buy a used 2 stroke. I have done it many times. The fact that I love doing it doesn't justify it in my wife's eyes though. Lol.

Next time prepack those stem bearings with a bearing packer then tap em on. I also wipe a little grease in the cup/race.

I've been hoping I could find a cheap 85cc to restore. Honda, Yamaha or Kawasaki. They have always been my favorite size.

I wish I have the time, tools and knowledge to this, great job!!!, wonder what the original owner is thinking now.

Hmmm... Will consider... :)

Theres always some valuable information in these videos for people who like to work on things. I was thinking it might have been better finding a brand new coil instead of that old one for that price.

nice work However noticed when you put grease on stem bearings You should watch a video on packing hub type bearings You will be surprised on how much grease they use.

I just bought a 94' kx250, i have a similar isuue with the top end because the walls have been worn down so ill have to get a whole new big bore kit otherwise it'll keep burning up my oil

Try penetrating oil. Liquid wrench makes good stuff that will dissolve rust almost instantly. I use aerokroil if I can get it.

Great video 😂😂

you can use a PVC pipe for the steering stem bearing too

My dad owned the same KX when I was a little kid, you got me inspired to something similiar :D

I love shinko tires for the price and performance

I think you need to invest in an ultrasonic cleaner for your carbon stuff or anything else engine wise tbh, easy and gets into every single nook and granny!

Great vid m8 what was the total money spent on bike thanks

As a female, I appreciated it

how did you biy the piston without knowing the cylinder diameter? simply took the same size as the one that the bike came with?

Those Kawasaki Japan stickers mean something bro. If you know you know. That was probably a serious racers bike back in it’s hay day if it’s sporting that sticker on the shock

I have NEVER seen rusty bearings like that>>>>>>>>>>>>> Whhhoooooo!

What kind of grips are those and do you like them

Nice! 🤙

Awesome! Hahahaha, spoke removal is sexy, I’ve always said that.

Does the piston come with the rings on it?

Must be satisfying to do this. Makes me want to get an old 2 banger and take my sweet time over it. If I can even break even on a sale, I'd be happy. I used to be a welder and metal finisher/polisher so, I have a few skills to call on and friends that still work there could come in useful lol. Even have a powder coating oven that could do frames with. Maybe one day..... The ONE thing I don't like or rather, like less, is the black rims on modern bikes. Prefer gold or bronze personally or silver. Gunmetal would look cool.

i learn s0 much

I don’t know about you, but the clips I think are the hardest to install lol. The 65 sx I did it took me forever to get the in correctly. Not to mention I lost those little clips at least 10 times and had to look for em. So frustrating

is there a chance that i can use kx250 fairings to kmx 125 ?

Today I learned I liked smooth jazz. Who'd've thunk.

That bike was completely clapped out

How long does a build like this usually take?

looks like that axle nut hasn't been greased in a very long time. i do it every time i change the tire, i thought that was common knowledge. i have the 4 stroke version ('05 250f) i abused it heavily when i was a teenager. would love to buy new parts for it but parts are getting hard to find
