hey guys hows it goin i have a 87 kdx and the kick starter is siezed on the spline i think the person before me red locktite it any ideas how to get it off thanks
-
i used a hammer and a pry bar when i got my OLD kicker off for the first time
-
tryin but not moven at all any other ideas and if i cut it off what kikstarters will fit off other bikes thanks
-
why dont you tie a long rope to it then run as fast as you can then the kicker should come off :-D
-
ha ha k never mind cut it off does any one know the torqe specs for the clutch springs the presure plate says kx 125 is it the same clutch for a 87 kdx as a kx 125 around the same year but yea torqe specs if any you guys got them for the kdx clutch springs thanks
-
its probably around 8ft pounds for my kx if i remember correctly.
but becareful with those bolts , they snap easily . on my rm i just tightened them evenly without a torque wrench
-
oh yea what size of kdx is it?
-
200 i belive its my roommates i have a kx 500 just helpin him with his bike
-
a new kicker for that bike is discontinued.. where did you cut it at?
-
saved it cut wasnt that bad goin to fill the cut in with weld
-
good, if you cut it beyond repair it would be tough luck finding a new or used one.
now if you cut the kick boss , then you wont be able to get those either but i know this person near me that has a large NOS kawasaki inventory that has the kick boss for that bike
-
no i was carefull hey i might pick up a fmf narly header pipe and a power core silencer for my kx 500 the guy wants 280 for both good price or no in pretty good shape
-
thats a good price! i paid alot more for my pipes
-
A little heat goes a long way to getting those off.
