We used it on my mangled Xtrainer pipe. I was impressed how well it worked!

Well I finally figured out why this 01 would not run well for anything.
Chipped Reed petal.
And who wants to replace a reed when you can upgrade?
VForce reeds.

Before pipe. Ugly.
Burned out the oil and carbon and polished and blew out the dents.

Another KX250 I just finished.
This had some weird stuff to fix lol
The shock was blown and I don't have the special tool to rebuild the reservoir and charge the nitrogen so I paid to have it done.
This bike has pretty sweet aftermarket X-Country suspension valving.
Another gooved clutch basket. Luckily I had one ready to go. I take back what I said about 250s not doing this as often...
I had another one of these laying around luckily.
Brake caliper slider bushing thingy was missing. It's weird I see this a lot.
Linkage bearings. This is the most common thing ever because they get hammered with mud and water and no one bothers to regrease them.

This one actually turned out pretty awesome.
It's all ready to go desert racing.

I thought you guys might like this pipe I just fixed for a KX250.
It was pretty much ruined.
Huge crack. And you can't weld this well because the pipe is just too full of dirt and oil that the weld just gets crazy porous and pitted.
So I cleaned it as best I could and tried to burn out all the oil. Then a little silicone bronze brazing and pressure tested it and blew out the dents.
I'm loving my oxy-acetylene torch setup.
