larryenticer:
Hello all
new to kxriders and the kawi period never owned one
i figured id give the kx125 a shot and im happy with it owned it 2 weeks now except
i rode just a few hrs and my head gasket is seeping a small amount of spoog? bike has new top end and head gasket head and jug was resurfaced??
wierd i have no coolant just looks like spoog seeping out?
Foxx4Beaver:
welcome to the site...
a couple things to look at...
was the head re-torqued to specs?...
and does that cylinder have a pressed in aftermarket sleeve that you know of?
also, what brand head gasket was used?
larryenticer:
yes head was torqued to factory spec 18 ft lbs so i read that was spec....
i dont think its been sleeved head gasket is topendgasket.coms dependable gasket kit
Foxx4Beaver:
Well, either way the head's gotta come off...hopefully some answers will expose themselves once you tear it down.
Who did the jug/head re-surfacing?
What I meant by "was the head re-torqued"...I meant did you re-torque it after the break-in process...sorry.
larryenticer:
i resurfaced myself and yes it was re torqued after about 15 mins of running
