@JohnnieBravo1 2 года назад

Great fix! This little bike goes way back to my time, moto-crossing and trials riding. One addition to your videos I think I'd find interesting, is a peek inside the spark plug hole with a tiny bore camera, and look at the piston, cylinder walls and all, when the plug looks that rusty. Those little scopes are real cheap now, either standalone with their own display, or one connects to your phone. Looking forward to your next one!

@Shortfuse39 2 года назад

I had an 85 CR125 and the best thing I ever did for it was get a Pro Circuit pipe for it. It removes the ATAC valve from the system and greatly increases the top end. My ATAC had broken teeth and didn't work, the bike was very low end. After rebuilding the top end and putting the pipe on, it was like a whole new bike! I miss my red devil... should of never sold it.

Hey Joe! That was a great video!! I am a huge fan as to how your videos go from the purchase, the diagnosing and repair(s), and the test riding of the bikes. I think learning how to repair engines and motorcycles is really interesting!! I am looking to buy a dirt bike and a quad for myself so I feel it's helping me prepare for the repairs that may be needed. That is again for submitting such kick ass material for all to enjoy!!

He thinks he is done with the motor, it's blubbering like crazy even on the power band. He will put shit tires on it give it an air filter call it done and move on to the next one.

@rustyshackleford309 2 года назад

Ehh I mean as long as he's honest when he sells it, I'd be more concerned if he was selling street legal motorcycles to people but most of his bikes are decent projects for someone else to finish up. If he throws some decent tires and tubes on it a handy person or bike mechanic could finish that thing up for a couple hundred bucks themself, some new reeds, maybe a jet kit, a new chain, and little neck bearings and other cheap bits if needed. It's not like he's a dealer/bike shop either he's probably just posting them on Facebook marketplace and craigslist.

@DisasterTheoryX 2 года назад

The butterfly valve in the ATAC port will break off and get lodged into the exhaust pipe. Remove it (the can) and fab a "cap" to seal it over. The bike will run great without it and isn't needed. I raced an '86 model with this done and it was a holeshot machine vs newer machines in the early 90's

@JakeBilling 2 года назад

Hi Joe, I've been watching you for a while now, it's really inspiring content and with each video I learn something new! Was observing the last few videos and noticed RU-vid is doing the same to you as it once was to me. Did you know if you export your videos in a higher resolution, RU-vid won't degrade the conent as much, meaning the quality for viewers is increased? So 1080p uses one bitrate/codec, and 1440p or higher uses a higher bitrate and codec? I noticed my videos were being pixelated especially with Gopro footage until I startd uploading at 1440p. Now they're much clearer, Just quick tip :) - Jake

I think some better advice would be for him to upload a video of some actual riding, not just up and down the street and around the backyard of your parents house.

I wanted to move to the 500 class in 89 but to damn crazy, rode a practice race with buddy's KX 500 and was sore for a week. Some of these bikes you find bring back memories.

Probably going to use this video to get her running again. Now you got me excited. Before it stalled it ran like a champ . There is about 40 hours on the top end so I’ll probably have to do it as well . Like this bike the guy I purchased it from raced it and rebuilt it after every second race . Hopefully I can get it running again. My CRF450R is fun but something about those old 2stokes just makes me happy cheers

The way that it should be in life. Help out were you can when you can. Never ask for anything in return for doing it at all. Only ask for what you really need.,or half to have to live on in life is all. That's my modo in life has been.& will be until my time on earth is done to. And don't steal people's tools& outboard motors like some folks have done to me 28 years ago. Thats for anyone cause karma will ketchup to them folks in life even if they don't believe in karma at all. You don't half to believe in it to make you A believer in it at all in life. There is good karma.& there is bad karma to in life. Espcailly to tool& outboard motor thevies out there in the world. The circle will find them to on that type of activity ways of doing towards others in life to aswell. Even if it's 28 to 30 years later on down the road to.
