my bike start first kick in any weather but thats just because i know how to jet a bike. also i have 125 psi, i am rebuilding it now, i wanted to wait till winter to rebuild it. although it starts first kick i have noticed a very slight loss of power when pinning it out of a turn, your bike is probably similar. if you let it go its going to get worse and your going to end up with an expensive rebuild.us

most dealerships are dipshits. i know of a lot of clueless dumbfucks that work at them. you can look all over this forum and others and they all have the same general consenses about them.

that is obvious your plug was fouled. your dumb for not changing it. i had figured your dumbass would have already replaced it and that this was a persisting problem. 2 stroke 101, the first thing that you check is the spark plug. now if it fouls again you have a problem, might just be jetting, but to jet it the top end needs rebuilt. now i am willing to help you jet it but i dont like being insulting for helping you.  

if i insulted people on here im sorry but they were telling me im LIEN that just pissed me off!!! But the bike is running great. and ordered crank bearings from rocky mountain atvcuz everyone on here just about said its a bottom end issue and everybody said my top end is worn and you said take it to a shop and they cleaned the air filter checked the oil and changed the plug and it startd rite up!!  

the shop you took it to then must be idiots, thats all im going to say about that.did you order crank seals?? this is what i was most concerened about & i said crank bearings because i thought that to replace the crank seal you had to split the cases. & im sorry tyler but your bike needs more compression than 128psi....it needs atleast 140 or more i would rebuild the top end befor somthing comes apart & wipes out your top end that will get expensive really quick.

Who said crank bearings? I said to do 2 tests and you did one. You should have tried the spark plug in the first place. Your top end needs rebuilt that's for sure. Now the only reason I said do a leakdown test was because I was under the impression that you changed the spark and was still having this problem.  

it had a new plug in it the guy said but i shouldve listened to you guys about never trust a seller but i ordered a crank bearing and seal set hell it was cheaper to get them both in one package lol  

tyler i think it was me that told you to replace the crank bearings if you had to split the cases thats just comon sense to me.

It could have been new. If it was then that means you're going to keep fouling plugs. It may just be bad jetting.

If you keep fouling plugs then change the tranny oil. Ride the bike for like 5 hours then check to see if you lost any oil. If you did then you have a bad crank seal. If you didn't then your jetting is off.  

yea thats wat kaw told me but its too damn cold but they did a leakdown test and said everythings good!but ill keep looking!!but where is the idle screw on that bike it idles high and takes of on its own in first gear thats how high the idle is lol and they said the jets are off a little also so you are telling the truth about the jetting issue but they said wait till this spring and bring it in for a top end job then they said they will jet it with a fresh top end.  

That sounds like a good deal. BTW I don't lie. Everything I say comes from what is told to me. I can only give advice that is as good as the evidence that is presented to me.  

yea i understand and i apoligise i wasnt giving the rite words in this forum 2smokes are new too me i had a 05yz250f that i had not one problem out of and someone saw me ridin it and gave me a offer i didnt even pay more it so yea its gone but can you try to help me with the idling on this kx125 please  

not sure about on yours, but the idle screw should be located on the carb and have a spring. Turn it one way, it idles higher, turn it the other way, and it idles slower. But overall, i would highly recomend getting a manuel.

BTW how did your kickstart issue turn out?  

idk it dont do it that much now it still does it sometime tho it hurts my ankle lol
