Well I should have learned my lesson from this thread because I spent about 4 or 5 hours welding on trailer of mine yesterday and I sunburned my arms bad. It was too hot to wear long sleeves or so I thought.... What an idiot. Lol

Ooosh!

Grrrr. What a pain to change a throttle tube

Ok lets try this again Before and after

Russ don't believe the hype: plenty of folks take and ride 2 strokes in Baja. Kawasaki won every single Baja 1000 championship from 1988 to 1996 on KX500 two strokes. Crazy fact: Ty Davis was on a team that won Baja on a bike overall 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996 AND 2018 They'll hold together the...

Little displacement motors need top ends pretty often, so I ordered a piston kit. When we pulled the cylinder the piston was in really good shape, but we decided to swap it anyways. It's good insurance. Some new coolant and we're good to light it off.

still wondering please advise.

I like airbnb's and minimalist packing. Last year we spent 16 days with our 2 kids and just two backpacks and a stroller in Denmark and Germany. We stayed at 14 different locations and mostly used public transportation; we only rented cars for 2 days. They have a great train system there...

The kid swapped the reeds. If you look up a few posts you can see that one of the stock reeds wasn't closing all the way. So we got Boyesen Super Stock reeds for an upgrade in breathing and compression.

Fantastic! The best use for the stuff I've heard of! Thank goodness for easy-outs! Also the schematic shows a idle screw spring... It does not exist on the carb. :rolleyes: New parts! Hooray! New carb boot.

The idle screw is actually snapped in half in the hole. Luckily it's plastic so it'll be easy to drill out. And the gas petcock holds fuel like a colander... This basically catches us up to where we are Thursday. Waiting for about $350 in parts to show up... Tracking says today.

See if you can identify the problem here:

We actually got this bike to run before we bought it. It lit off on some starter fluid then it went to the moon at idle.... Obviously there's a reason it got parked haha.

Bare. I found the kid an old toothbrush and he got to scrubbing all the nooks and crannies.

Razor blades and hair dryers. The graphics on the gas tank were gross.

Seat before and after. This is kind of a terrible before and after... Haha. But in real life it's like night and day. Soaked and scrubbed in degreaser, then pressure washed and wiped with acetone. I might have to give this somemore love... Lol

I know a guy with a couple fun 250 2 strokes that need a new home.

Still interested in the floor drill press.

The kid lined up with the degreaser and a brush then power washer for a loooong time. (I told you he's awesome, check out his Cherokee shirt!)

Wow! Sketchy
