    Hey joe, you should consider picking up a hydraulic press, two dial indicators and an assortment of v blocks. I've heard you mention it in the past. When I finally broke down and decided to get that equipment, it was the best decision I ever made! Being able to rebuild a crank yourself, on your own time with no added expense truly is a game changer. I guarantee you will be hooked! Keep the videos coming.

    Great content - Yamaha TTR's are iconic at this point, especially TTR 125's. Most everyone who rides either started on a TTR of some sort or size or had a friend that had one when they were learning to ride. NOTHING wrong with low compression, low maintenance, air cooled 4-stroke bikes that are normally bullet proof for a lifetime (unless you run them dry of oil).

    To help find the VIN scratch of the paint and take some vinegar and salt to rust the frame. That might reveal the outline of the numbers. That's how my Honda is, it has the VIN plate and it etched into the frame. The numbers that are etched into the framed are rusted on the edges and it makes it really easy to see them. So maybe try the rust trick. Love the videos Joe keep it up!

    TTR 125’s are awesome if they are well maintained.. I’ve rebuilt a few of them that were not including a seized rod and another one missing a tooth from second gear. Surprisingly both were still running and riding up to when I tore them down. The seized rod would get stuck after running for a few seconds, you could free it up and it would still start right back up. They are great bikes as long as people keep oil in them.

    I hate that. My Suzuki RM80 and then later down the road my Husky WXC 410 both had same issue. Fixed the RM, then broke it again and sold it. The parts guys at Husky were useless and never gave me a straight answer on part prices and said they'd call me and never called back (this went on for weeks), so I ended up just selling it as is to someone who wanted to turn it into a trike. Once again, the uselessness over at the dealership caused him to not get parts, and when he finally found a new crank, it was almost 2k, so he scrapped it.

Just avoid them all together even if they are cheap. I could of bought a new kfx450r back when they were new for $800 but I knew better. I've powdercoated many frames and my buddy has a business.

    These Yamaha singles are horrible when needing to adjust the valves. The plastic caps on the left cover get stripped, and you need to disassemble half the bike to get the valve covers off cause the clearences are so minimal in the frame. I've hated valve jobs on my TW125 with passion. And riding without oil kills them in no time. I rode that thing with a slight leak in the oil line for maybe a kilometer and the whole valvetrain was shot

    The vin would be on the neck. It's pre 06. 02 and 01 have smaller hub studs.

    What if the spring and gasket from the fuel screw are stuck inside and only the needle comes out, would that cause a problem?

    Is that a universal flywheel puller? Trying to pull my boys flywheel to put the timing chain back on after it fell off with a complete top end rebuild ….. don’t see one specifically listed for the ttr125

    So the pilot was clogged...I would have went size bigger just for the heck of it...too bad about the bottom end bearing...I clogged an oil passage on my 01 Rancher and caught it before it did too much damage.

    The numbers are always right but behind the forks on the frame right where you were wiping the first time with your hand not down along the side in front of the motor right where the bearings go for the front porch if there's no VIN number then this is stolen dirt bike

    I’m only 22 minutes in but It could have the wrong oil in it. If it’s the wrong viscosity ( e.g. too thin ) it’ll rattle its head off. Change the oil and put some thicker oil in it. By the sounds of it the damage has been done anyway

    Well the first thing is it's making more noise in-between strokes , so it's a chain or valve problem. Slot of noise I've never heard that

    yikes, I'm about to pull the top end(s) off my rd350 because the base gaskets are leaking oil. 😥 Hopefully don't find any extra problems like you did with bad rod bearings, not too optimistic tho it hasn't been registered since 78' lol!

    • @dannyjamison8337
      @dannyjamison8337 2 года назад

      @ wrecked revival. How are the base gaskets on your rd350 leaking oil? It's a two-stroke, there's no oil in the crankcase.

    • @WreckedRevival
      @WreckedRevival 2 года назад +2

      @@dannyjamison8337 It''s been sitting and non running since 78'. we lubed the cylinder walls a bit with oil before trying cranking it over so it was probably a mixture of oil we put in it and fuel but pretty much all of the gaskets/seals on it are either leaking or likely toast on it anyway.

  • @jamestaylor7746
    @jamestaylor7746 2 года назад

    ....Free FIX???? I had been thinking about contacting you to see if you could help with a '97 Suzuki DR350 bottom end replace/rebuild. The crankcase cracked (all the way across - both right/left and covers) while a friend was riding it. I was trailing him and didn't hear anything or see smoke.... he just pulled over and said something happened. Then I look down and see oil spilling on the trail, then see the internal gearing and bearings.
    It would probably make for excellent content, and I am extremely curious on what could cause such a catastrophe, without prior noticeable warning signs.

    • @jamestaylor7746
      @jamestaylor7746 2 года назад

      ...actually, I commented before seeing this whole video and seeing this one ended up being a bottom and top end tear down. If working on the Suzuki is something you'd consider please let me know. Amazing how you get 'em running.
