To lower you seat on you bike you will have you stiffen you suspension and your seat will go down?

hiyasounds like your clutch cable is to tight and not releasing the clutch plates enough try slacking it off a bit and that should cure the problem hope this helpsJohn

1- Remove nuts, clutch spring plate and springs 2 Feed a rolled-up rag between both primary reduction gears to prevent the clutch from turning, then remove the clutch hub nut. 3- Remove clutch hub, pressure plate, steel plates and friction plates. 4- Remove clutch housing. 5- Slide clutch bushing and thrust water from shaft. Take care to note how thrust washer is installed.

Hi, easy job, if your bike is waer cooled, you dont say how old it is the old bikes were air cooled, undo all the water pipes attached to the r/h case all the water will escape, you can leave the oil inside the gearbox, if you lay the bike on its left hand side, lift the engine and block it up to make sure gear lever is not resting on the ground, as this will disengage when you remove the clutch cover on the r/hand side, undo all the fixing screws from the cover remove kickstart lever, tap the cover gently to loosen the cover and remove when loose, if the case will not come off check further for screws, sometimes hide inside water pumps etc, once you are ready to remove the cover, keep the kickstart shaft pushed inermost so that it stays located within the engine, once ready fully observe the location of spring mountins within the engine and replace the spring

its prob your magnito with out a good connection to magnito it wont spark at all,could also be spark plug wire



My bike,
Kx125

I am not familiar with a 00 kx 125. Typically, a clutch cable has a barrel (or other special shaped piece) on the end which clips into a holder on the lever OR there is a threaded rod with two nuts on it to allow for adjustment.I hope this helps.Thanks for your interest in FixYa.com

Check your fuel filter, sounds like it maybe clogged or needs replaced, can use a generic gas filter to fix or troubleshoot your problem. Rick

Sounds like too much fuel. To go from the pilot of 27.5 (assuming this was stock) to a 45 is a huge jump. Put the 27.5 in and see if the bog goes away. I would back the screw out 1 1/2 also, and put the clip in the center.
The pilot affects idle to 1/4 throttle.
The needle and clip affect 1/4 to 3/4
The main is more like 1/2 to full
****make sure your air filter is clean...
(Irratic idle may be due to an air leak)

Specialist job, not saying you cant do it, but it involves you removing all the old wire, measuring the length and diamiter of the wire, and replacing the same amount exactly, to obtain the correct resistance, not allowing the wire to go to earth at any point during the rewinding , you have nothing to loose just time and patiance, maypay off dividends

piston kit, wrist pin bearing, top end gasket kit and a honing tool to clean your cylinder is about it I would probably buy new air filter and spark plug if I was doing it, but not essential ?

there is a checl bolt on the rh side it doesn't hold anyhting one and has a copper waher. sorry i tried to get the picture on here but it's to big

Is it possible that rings were broken during the assembly?

on rear axle shaft (both sides) are adjustment screws (bolts) make sure they are exactky the same when you are done

is it loosing water mate and the mix is 32-1 mate and get some good oil if it loosing water the head gasket has gone if it not this ckeck the jeting on the carb good look

check fuel line.... from tank to carburator.... probably your having fuel problem, there might have some foriegn object that got stock up... check out the main jet....

Never try to "out engineer" the engineers. Just install a fresh unaltered set of reeds. You may want to ask the previous owner if the main jet was ever changed. If so, ask the dealer for a stock main jet.

strip the carb down, check the float level it mite be out also check for a blocked jet. its got tobe one or the other that is wrong to cause fuel to overflow. hope this helps
