I restored a 1989 rm125 last year fully rebuild the engine and tore it down to the frame and made sure everything was good and replaced everything that needed to be and got it running and looking mint then gave it to a friend of mine who couldn’t afford a dirt bike and he loves it and rides it all the time

Yeah I rescued a 2001 YZ 250F About 9 years ago. I brought it all the way from a blown up engine with metal debris in every oil journal lol it was crazy like nothing I've ever seen. The crankshaft was broken the piston was cracked. My biggest worry was making sure that I got all of the metal debris out of the engine and oil lines. Dropped a Hot Rods big bore kit in it converted it from manual decompression to automatic decompression what a big difference that made. It was a piece of junk sitting on the side of somebody's house for years in Las Vegas Nevada. After everything was said and done it was an extremely nice bike again and it ran like a champion . Time money and effort gets er done and know how.

They could be but I reckon that someone poked something through the old clutch basket and jammed it up against the webbing on the case in order to loosen the clutch nut, they then broke the webbing off and did not bother to get the broken bits out of the engine! Some people should have their tools confiscated because of the cruelty that they inflict on mechanical devices.

Either way im very disappointed with the person who owned this bike. Damn terrible shame that this bike was neglected the way it was. Keep up the good work brother!! 👌🇺🇸
