I bought a 92 Kx 250 from you about 3 years ago. Just found your channel and saw the videos of you fixing the bike. Awesome!
How's the bike going?
?
cap
@@hextremelydesirable1648 what about my comment is “cap”? If it is the bike I would be happy to show you pictures but there should be no reason to not believe me.
@@bwag358 enagagement to tell you that the one thing you’re forgetting about is crypto PULSECHAIN $0.000099
Would you consider getting a borescope camera to help when trouble shooting engines?
You could look inside a possibly damaged cylinder without having to strip it down. I'm sure shop manager Vinnie would approve the purchase 👍
Then we would have nothing to watch....
Takes less than 10 minutes to take off head!
@@DakotaB90 Pull the pipe.
I purchased a bore scope on Amazon for $35 bucks. Was not expecting much in qualiity but turned out to be worth the bucks. HD Industrial Endoscope is the China brand name. Was not expecting much but works pretty darn good.

Joe at some point you will have re-built every clapped out 125 in the state of WI ! Enjoyed the show.
Or maybe just open up a repair shop. And he'll still have the content.
Come on guys let's get Joe to at least 500,000 subscribers love to see a million. This channel is awesome very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for the entertainment. God bless you and your family.
aye good video again! I love these kind of videos when you fix bikes!! Keep it up!!!!
Get the cylinder replated. In the UK it’s a 1 week postal turnaround service. Makes it like new again. Seen a few chip off on the ports, just a sign of the plating starting to go after all those years at 8k rpm
It's a sleeve, not a Nikasil plating...
In this example you gotta bore the sleeve a 1/10mm - 1mm and rehone it
@@StefanShift The only thing is yes it does have a steel sleeve however if you bore the sleeve you have to have some removed off of the power valve or the power valve will come in contact with the piston I know from experience
@@MrATOMBOMB420 true, but it seems in this case it might be close and won't be needed, but surely need to be kept in mind!
@@StefanShift Trust me if you bore the cylinder you have to have some removed off the power valve you can't just lightly resurface the cylinder if it's it's going to have to be bored out The ring retainer pin has fell out of a piston the ring rotated and caught the exhaust port so it's going to need to go to the next size piston you can't just go a tenth off of it and call it a day because you have to go to the next size piston whatever next size piston is available he can keep it local his local shop can do it
I was pretty sure it is Nikasil...send to Millenium...for replating...
I had a '70s Yamaha YZ80 that had a pin in the piston ring groove to keep the ring from rotating. That pin came out and the ring rotated until the gap was in the exhaust port. That caused the cylinder to wear badly at one side of the exhaust port. In my case it was easy to see because the pin was embedded in the top of the piston. For your stuck hydraulic hose check out the Captain Kleeman video named "Blown Hoses and Rotted Cab - Gaining Ground on the Backhoe Rebuild" around the 50 second mark. He uses a hammer drill to vibrate and loosen the fitting. Love your videos!
I have the same motorbike as you.. suzuki rm 125 (registered for circulation) purchased abandoned and rebuilt! I love this bike
Great bikes.👍 Some of best 125s ever made! -NW Ohio
Great video Joe… and Vinny is rapidly becoming a RUclips star! 👍❤️😎✅
Great videos. Your page gives me so much confidence to try and fix my own break downs.
I have zero interest in bmx motors. However I love listening to you and viewing your videos. There is no pretense with you witch is so refreshing on RUclips
Blessings on your endeavors in RUclips world 👍
BMX motors?
What does BMX Motors mean? My BMX don’t have a motor
@@JmillerKiller exactly
Just showing my ignorance; aka off-road motorcycles 😁
@@walk4718 you're making this way too much work, just call them dirt bikes
Love watching these videos. Just recently found you. I enjoy learning the mechanics of the bikes.
look who's the new favourite
It hurts to see all of these young kids learning from a young kid@@empiresrikesfat
Joe, its time to get a lift. A HF lift changed my life for all my bikes
It's more than just a lift he needs. One step at a time though.
time he ditches the claw hammer
Let’s start with some ratcheting wrenches and a trash can for the damn framing hammer in the mechanics shop
He's young and strong as a bull (almost as smart lol) but his back will tell him to get a lift eventually.....
@tonyking3125 I'm in my 30s so not totally fudged yet but damn the lift is so nice. No more crouching on my knees. Makes everything 10 times easier.
Hey Joe! Sure do miss Jade's cameo appearances, such a nice young lady;) Great video's, a little challenging finding the follow up videos when projects are on hold for parts..the best is when you're able to cluster them as a series, but I really enjoy viewing, keep it up! Stay safe and well, ear rubs to Vinny;)
Time to invest in and get one of those cheap little borescopes from hobo freight. Very nice tool to have for inspecting down the spark plug hole.
Harbor Freight slander will not be tolerated 😂
You will be banned if you don’t recant your Harbor Freight comment. We don’t tolerate that devil tongue in these comments
he has one, just never uses it
Haha hobo freight love that one
@@Tiovergudo china numba won
A few mechanics I've seen use an air hammer on stubborn hydraulic fittings. Thanks for sharing.
Ol' Joe loves his dirtbikes. Great looking cycle, now let's tear it apart! 2Vinney is excited, smells lots of Gravy Train coming his way
Love the diagnostics. Custom Air Filter? Where can i get one of those? Why not commercial (big) coffee filters?
great video.. love Vinnie so full of life, bless...like to see other projects going on. keep up the good work...
Nice video collaboration 🎉 very cool . Thanks for sharing 😊
That was an EXCELLENT deal for a great yr RM125. Well worth fresh top end + new Acerbis plastics. Its a great project bike. 👍 💯 -NW Ohio
Heads up on that year, I have 2000 modle which is the same bike. The spark plugs are a special type as the ground is not welded as the engine frequency will loosen the weld and you will destroy the cylinder.
What kind of plug do you need?
@@Bert805b ngk R6918-b racing spark plug
That is indeed the truth. I also have a 2000 rm125. New plug was like $40. It’s a great running bike, comfy, and turns on a dime. Honestly mines been very good to me
@@Bert805b R6918B is about $36 at Autozone. When the ground electrode on BR8ES and BR9ES fails due to the severe vibration it bounces around leaving indentations in the cylinder head and the top of the piston. If your lucky it will blow out the port - if not it gets stuck between cyl and piston and wipes out the engine.
Hi Joe, I always enjoy watching your videos and was just wondering where do you sell the bikes and quads?
Hey Joe. Keep up the awesome content. 👍👍👍😁
Jumping around doing little stuff on a bunch of projects makes my add happy
Nice to see a video with a few projects in it!! Keep it up!!
I love these filler videos, super easy fix with the skid steer if you can get that line off they don’t come easy I had the same issue with a bobcat mini escavator
Love your videos. Keep up the great work. Vin sure looks like he's having a blast! What breed is he? Mix? Have a great weekend.
That lime on your skid loader if you use a air hammer and a blunt punch the hammering action of the hammer works great for loosing hydrologic fittings that's a air chisel
I love this channel. Thanks for your good language vary, family-friendly
That cylinder sleeve is probably from detonation witch is mainly caused by low octane fuel. I might also be wrong but I’m pretty confident
was thinking the same thing. Detonation damage. But i think the fuel "quality" could be low because of way to much oil. All that oil that kept running down from the power valve, and the sparkplug being all black and oily. same with the cylinder head, thick coating of burnt oil....
You do amazing work love your channel
Hi Joe would you recommend buy a Cfmoto 2 up quad. Or anyone on this form would really appreciate it. Keep the videos coming Joe love watching them
It's a pity you're so far away. I have 3 dirt bikes in California looking for a bit of attention (99 YZ400F, 2006 CR230F, 2007 KTM 450 XC) and it would be great to see them in expert hands
You should take vinny with you before u buy the bikes
Do you want to sell the hover craft? And if so how much.
@@rogerswigert8798 yes selling it as I can't find a starter for it. I paid over 7k for it. Would like to get $4500
He can sniff out the rats…go Vinny..Joe is very good at that himself. Your second sense is better than any.
Great vid , nice to see more than one project per video
Great video sir! I was wondering what you do with all these machines. Do you sell them or collect them?
That Canada, pull back pulley quick simple belt swap.pull out center bolt, pops right off.
I love these diagnostic videos
Vinny takes the limelight as usual!!..ha ha ha..Another fantastic video buddy..
Kubota makes a good skid steer. Mike Morgan with RUclips”Outdoors with the Morgan’s” recommends Kubota for every thing he does.
For a rubber track skidsteer, I have owned two Takeuchi's in the past. I had a Bobcat prior to that, and did copious amounts of research on them. The Takeuchi's Japanese overall design build and joy to operate is equalled only by its incredible reliability.
Hey Joe, so, there are a few good comments under the section, I most certainly would second a Boro scope especially when going to view a bike that won't start or has no compression, it may help with diagnosing costlier repairs up front and could help negotiate a better price....
Regarding skid steer If you can get to it with a punch in an SDS drill with rotary stop or an air hammer you could try hammering on the flats of the nuts of the hose, that might loosen them enough for a spanner to undo them. Its a trick I learned from Clint of C&C Equipment who is another or my favourite RUclipsrs.
Love your video's, always interesting.
You should do an updated machine collection video when the weathers nicer bring them all to the land 😊
Thanks for sharing your knowledge your videos are great plus a good teacher, now if only could find a rm like that in Tx every body acts like they worth their weight in gold here
Great video! Too bad many manufacturers use throwaway nikasil or chrome plating.
I would definitely consider a bobcat or case skidsteer. You can get over the tire metal tracks that will definitely help with traction. And they are pretty common and easy to find parts for.
Maybe a bobcat t140? That might be too heavy for your trailer though. Look into a mini skid(stand on) great vid
A mash up of projects is good to view mate
You guys are freaking awesome I think it's awesome how you and your dad have this special bond not like any other father and son, I guarantee you I will be. Is it possible to donate, to help with
Tracked Kubota ssv 75 skid steer. I use one almost everyday and it's a beast imo
Great video! Just a question I noticed, and can anyone tell me this, but do Wisconsin bikes need titles? Because here in Michigan, you legally are required to have a title and cannot buy or sell without it(although it is rarely enforced)
That was the best Vinny yet......
Hey, I love the videos. What's going on with the a TV in the background? Is the update coming
OMG, I have never seen a rag used as an air filter before in my life until now! No wonder it was losing power every time he rode it!!!
I recognize that fabric as a HEPA vacuum prefilter. It’s designed to fit over the main filter to extend service life.
You should get a Takeuchi Skid Steer it comes on tracks and made in Japan, Andrew Camarata uses them.
The Tak as we use to call them 15-20yrs ago is a badass skid steer. The TL series with the rubber tracks are a beast in sandy soil and out perform most CATs and Bobcats due to the weight differences and power displacement. I use to own 2 and grew up on the beach and did a many of beach sand pushes around ocean front houses without the slightest struggle. $150 per hour 10hrs a day was our rate back then to move sand away from homes and it was a money maker. Machines paid for themselves in a month:
Most likely a material defect, seen it all the time in the automotive world working at a tech.
Vinnie knows how to have fun! 😜👍
Where could I find that nut thread checker on your wall at 41:05 that thing looks awesome!
Would you drive to southern Idaho if I lined you up a few projects? Love your channel
Joe, You should do a garage live and do a Q&A. I’m sure a lot of people would have a lot of questions with your experience!
Good luck with that, he doesn't even answer questions in the comments.
Awesome another 2stroke in the house in good condition
My advice on the hydraulic line isn't conventional, but I hit the wrench with a hammer in extreme cases. It's a bit risky, but my experience has been that such extremes tend to require replacing more parts anyway.
Bonus footage. Nice 👊
I like thease videos it's always a learning experience why won't the bike start let's see why .
always a happy day when joe posts!!!
Couldnt tell on the skid steer, but some have access plates on the sides if you take off the tires to be able to get to the lines better, may check there.
Nice video Joe, Tell Vinnie to lay of the caffeine too haha :p
Excellent. Thank you.
I suggest getting a Toro Dingo or Bobcat MT 55 mini skid. Lots of attachments.
Oh yeah buddy!!!
❤happy Friday 🇨🇦🤘
I bought this exact bike brand new in 1999 it was a beast loved it best bike I ever had
How do you find parts for older bikes, I have an 1975 TM 100 Suzuki. Need an air filter. Any ideas?
I seen this bike on marketplace in Wisconsin. Nice ol 2 stoke
Great content ! Learned a lot from your video, I restored a blown yz450f 2008 last year, now its in perfect condition
96-00 is my favorite style of rm. Had a 98 rm 250 years back
What do you do with all these bike and atvs do you sell them or keep them for your collection. I’m looking for an tv at the moment just curious?
I've seen that before on a 490 when the locating pin for the ring gap worked its way loose and the ring rotated and slipped into a port
I am not sure if that was actually you answering my comment Joe.People say that many comments about comments are other people messing around.But i really would like for you to do a new winch install one a 4 wheeler like my 1999 Yamaha Grizzly.The brand i chose is KFI.Also the mount for the front.The winch mounting is pretty straight forward.But the wiring and tucking it away is what i need to see.I saw many likes at my end for this how to DIY.One dealer near me wanted about 300+ dollars just to install the very kit i purchased. Thanks
Ok, to get skid steer line off, try 1 - heat JIC collar with heat and use large adjustable wrenches Try 2, cut hose off close to collar with cutting wheel and use deep socket to remove jic fitting. good luck!
Careful with heat near that engine, hydro fluid, diesel fuel and turn signal fluid!
Hey Joe, what camera setup do you use/have?
Thanks.
Another excellent video
The difference between a wheeled and a tracked skid steer is like night and day. Yes there are uses for a wheeled unit, mostly if you're on pavement or concrete all day, but in the dirt or grass or out on the farm, yeah man tracks are SO much nicer..
What do y’all use for schematics? Is there an Alldata-type source for small engines?
Love the show just got done doing my cr250 awhile back. Would love to race you in the mint400 next year. I race the vintage class and we can see who is the real vintage king is lol jk bro u the man!
Hi do you post videos of fixing the bike putting new parts on and getting this rm125 running again?
Nice looking cycle. Looked like weak compression when kicking over. My thoughts, age or milage, rings
I remember splitting a 250 yz and putting it back together in the same day just to ride the weekend.
One of these days you should get some supermoto rims and tires for one of these bikes and come ride supermoto with us on the motorplex at Road America. It's a lot of fun and we race 5 times year as well as one race in shawano.
I had a RM 250 do the same thing yours did. Turns out it was not a standard size bore and the bigger piston size interfered with the power valve. Bike ran great and then it just died and no compression. Mine took a small chunk of the top of the piston off on the exhaust size. The power valve needs to be relieved a little bit to work with the larger piston.
Simply amazed how smart this guy is at fixing these bikes so fast at good knowledge keep up good the work
Joe make sure all the pressure is released to the hydraulic lines move all the controls around to release, air hammer will be your best friend removing those lines to bust them loose then get u a wrench on them... Get you a bobcat can't go wrong with one....
Waiting for that shop to be built on "The Land"
You can smooth the spot right near the power valve I had too do that on 1991 yz250 and Smith the power valve it self
very clean
send the cylinder to power seal USA. or sometimes even local dealerships can re-sleeve cylinders
You would make a good blacksmith or bladesmith. You are very coordinated.
Joe, looks like you are about to have a sale of machines you have worked on. Can you direct us to where to look for those items? Thanks for the Vids
You are one handy little fellow!!!
What loading/unloading ramp do you use?
