Well sorry it has taken a couple of days but here are a few pics. It runs and rides. I need to take care of title so I can register it. I still need to swap out the main jet and go retest to see how it runs. The setup I have on it for air intake isn't ideal but it will work until I can figure out something else. I have an idea on what I want to do to make a flexible rubber like boot but it will be something that needs time to figure out the best process to use to make it. The pipe that is on it now is definitely not right for the engine and it hangs down a bit low. I will need to make something different eventually. For not it is at least ride-able and I can put a few miles on it and see if I enjoy riding this monstrosity. Also there is a crack in the rear rim that needs to be taken care of...

O-yea... and it is UGLY....... I am thinking of stripping the red off the tail and side plates, temporary back to green. Then if I keep the bike and tear it down to paint I might go with a blue frame and dye the plastics black.

Looks like you are missing the rubber tank dampers   92160-1221   &   92160-1171   they will help reduce vibration and with give you better clearance from the cylinder head!

I would add a picture but the site seems to be at fault so can not add any sorry!

Actually all 6 pads for the tank are there. I pulled them off the frame for paint then glued them back on.

I did run into another issue. A bit of a big one at that.... More of an over site on my part. When I picked up the bike the bottom end of KX125 engine was in a home depot bucket and the top end was non existent. So I was originally thinking of saving the suspension or at least front forks and triple clamps and parting out the rest of the bike so I didn't pay too much attention to the paperwork I was given from my dealership. Long story short the tittle isn't notarized by the "correct" seller so I will have to get with my MVD and see what is needed to do a bonded title if I want to register it in my name and make it legal to ride on public land here in AZ. This should be fun...

On a good note though all that is left to do is a little bit of tuning and ride her for a bit and see how I like her. I have officially dubbed this project done and have moved on to my next project. A Frankenstein Polaris RZR 1000 that I have been piecing together for a little over 3 years, and my focus is all on it right now because it is almost done as well.... If I get Frankin-RZR done in the next week or two then I am going to try and take them both down for inspection at the same time. I will see if I can get some fresh pictures of the KX this week and post it up when I have a chance.

Mike.

Cool project!
