Might need to move that throttle needle one click down. Seem a big groggy in that mid to high range. But more importantly, CHECK THE FLOAT HEIGHT! Im telling you, you will never get a good tune without checking that first thing! Edit: Also By the sounds of it, it either needs a new plug or the coil contacts needs to be cleaned (Misfired between strokes) I posted a video if any of you want to hear what that may sound like on a 2T (Read Discrpition for detailed info on why). Both are super easy to do. This bike has insane potential. What an absolute steal!

Great job on the diagnosis and the rebuild. I loved riding those CR’s back in the day. My last dirt bike was an 89’ CR250, rode the hell out of it until it was stolen in the mid 90’s. Never got it back. Decided to pull the plug on dirt bikes. After seeing and hearing you rip that little 125 around a bit brought back a few memories. Should be a nice bike once you get it dialed in. Great job on the video!

@smoknjoe73 7 месяцев назад

Love these vids and watch them constantly. I have to mention I dont get some of the procedures in this way. When I get a bike to work on the FIRST THING I do every time is drain the gas tank to bone dry and clean the carb(s). Usually I put a filter inline but if this isnt done you are really shooting yourself in the foot since crud in the tank will just keep clogging the carb no matter how many times you clean it. I would not even try to start a bike til I did these simple things. Keep up these vids as they are hugely entertaining and for a wrench like me very relaxing and peaceful to watch. Oh yeah maybel consider wearing a little gear when you ride so my 9yr old son doesnt have to keep telling me "he should be wearing gear" and to keep the next gen of dirtbikers safe.

Aviation sealant is better than tube UltraBlack , plus it has a brush on the cap for application . I used it on VW engines in the 80's and since it worked well, i use it for any seal job or gasket adhesive. Very thin surface height, solvent resistant, fuel and oil resistant. It has never dried in the plastic can either.

Is any sealant specified? The thin green aramid fiber gaskets are impregnated with resin or NBR. They shouldn't need sealants with clean flat mating surfaces, and have the best longevity on stressed assemblies when installed uncoated. Old 'paper' gaskets were close to actual kraft paper and did need sealant.

That's the right set-up on that Kehan carburetor. like that it's off of A snowmobile engine. So it's going to be A totally different carburetor set-up than the stock factory style of one. So you're wrong on the jetting sizes for that carburetor though. Just saying those original jets belong in that carburetor for sure. I know cause the plastic piece inside of it those are inside of snowmobile carburetor's and jet ski carburetor's to. Jus like dirt bikes one also the only difference is the jetting sizes for sure. I went to A vocational school for small engines trust me it's 👍 right bro. Clean them out put them back inside and then try it out. I highly recommend cleaning out that entire carburetor first due to the water issues as we'll then retry it out.
