I just bought 2 1990 125 rolling chassis' with one motor and yes they are for sure 90s. I pulled the numbers on the piston that came with the motor today and its a wiseco for a 1991 engine...Is there a way I can tell what year this engine is for sure because the 90 and 91 seem to have different pistons from what I've found. I haven't found any serial number on the engine but anyone can throw a 91 piston in a 90 motor so I just want to make sure I put the correct one in.

Without a engine ID number it will be hard.
88-90 kx125 used KX125FE00xxxx
91 used KX125HE00XXXX
If you don't have the number, look at the cylinder.
A 90 cylinder will have 1602 embossed on the cylinder behind the left exhaust valve cover.
A 91 cylinder will have 1645 embossed on the cylinder behind the left exhaust valve cover.
A 90 will use a KEIHIN PWK V56 carburetor.
A 91 will use a KEIHIN PWK V675 carburetor.
A 90 head should have 1316 embossed on it.
A 91 head should have 1344 embossed on it.

Awesome thanks for the response man Ill check that out tonight when I get home I need to make my formal introduction to the site still too. I may have overlooked the number on the cases but I'm pretty sure its not there.

Well Ive got the 1645 on the cylinder and v675 on the carb that along with the 91 piston safe to assume its a 91 motor
