    TWO DAYS AGO I bought a 1989 Honda CR125R so I could go dirt riding with my son, who also has a Honda 125 dirt bike. I paid the equivalent of about $500 for it. Well, I tested it before I bought it, and everything was fine (except hard starting with the kick start). Went riding today and the...

    Luck of the Irish was with this rider...

    Bad Luck during routine Morley HD Oiler installation

    Holy crap. I am in the process of installing the Morley HD Oiling Kit. I just got my 45 degree snap ring pliers and removed the snap ring on the inside oil pump drive gear and pulled the shaft out the outside. The gear dropped out on my chest as I expected. I cleaned the shaft and the...

    Curse My Lack of Luck

    So the weather finally broke here in ole WI. I was all psyched to ride, but when I fired up Mr. Max and let him warm up the low fuel light was on. "WTF", I parked it with a full tank of gas. So I filled it up, thinking that maybe perhaps a friend of my mom's came and took it for a cruise (I...

    Any luck fixing handlebar vibration?

    Hey All, Among the many projects I did this spring, I put solid engine mounts in my 97, along with that, I sync'd the carbs, put new progressive shocks in the rear, (front springs were last summer) put bar end mirrors on it, and put a Morley seat on it. I'm sure it's because of the solid...
