my new ride & my friends crf450

[rubicon500kid]

well i sold my rubicon a few weeks ago after geting busted at a local spot and it closing down and i want to help out my mom so i gave her half and with the rest i wanted to try some thing dif and ride where I want to and not get bothered by cops (mx track) so I bought an 01 kx 125
It has a PC pipe   
Tag bars
Pro rear wheel
And a few lil things
But I was told it was race ready and ready to ride I didn't notice it at the time but when I got home it needed a new clutch and a bunch of other crap good thing is it starts 1st kick  and I learned my lesson now lol 

This is what I had to order
Motion pro clutch cable
Motion pro clutch lever
Tusk clutch kit with hd springs
Twin air filter
Rear linkage bearings
Rear shock bearings

It still need's a few other things but I don't have the $ to buy them right now

Here is a few pics of it at the mx track(couldn't ride it because that's where I found out what was wrong with it so I wasted like 40$ out there )  here is also pics of my friend on his crf450

Here are pics of my bike






When we first got there


both bike's



Here is my friend on his crf450 (he wasn't riding as hard as he dose and was running in c class because he wrecked pretty bad and hasn't been riding as much )

thats a good looking bike man, congrats. I'm going to be doing the same thing here soon i hope. I think the buck fifty article in either dirtrider or riderx inspired a lot of people to jump on a dirtbike...or at least it seems like it.

Was it broken when you got it?

[rubicon500kid]

yea the guy said only the clutch cabel need to be done but the whole bottem end is fucked up  im pi$$ed as hell i have no $ to spend on  it so  im thinking about selling it and put money down on a 07 crf 250

[rubicon500kid]

ok update i got it runing where i could drive it and it proble needs a new topend now too also to add to the list the oil drain bolt is stripped and i need a new rear linkage


1 thing i learnd is that this is the last used bike i buy i should be abel to put some $ down on a 06 or 07 crf 250 or kx250f  in about 6 months
so now the Q is to fix it or sell it
im going to check out the topend in the morning befor school

(i dont think its exposed to be like that)



this is what the out side part looks like (the casing is cracked)


are these cracks exposed to be there ? more power ? lol





i got more pics ill post later

also when i got this bike i was told its a race ready bike lol only if i knew

[Toomey]

That sure is a pain.  Don't know of any good ways to go about it except to fix it.

[rubicon500kid]

yeaa i need a new rear linkage becuase i gess they road it with out bearings for a long time and itmade a grove  so now its no good and the engine oil drain bolt is striped and a bunch more crap
