Do you ever sleep? Hardest working youtuber ever
Not even close
He's definitely a hard worker
@@jerrywilcox9890who else drives to go get a bike from some random guy, diagnose the issue, fix it, then edit and make an almost hour long video about it, almost every single day. Most CZcamsrs make way lazier content and take three times as long to get it out
He’s an engineer too.
No doubt a real trooper! Hope he gets 1 million subscribers 🏍️
Dude! I’m sitting in my office at home not feeling very well and your channel has lifted my spirits. Why? Because I know you’ll figure out the problem and fix it. Thank you!
Feel better man!
I am in bed sick too, and was thinking, 'all I have the brains for is watching him troubleshoot a used something'. 😆
LoL. I was gonna leave the office to go home, but stayed for this on me panorama screen. I was rudely interrupted twice by phone calls, but recovered quickly. you boys drink your vitamin C & grease those wheels

God will too whatever you going through Gods got your back
From the rip Joe, taking me back to my youth.. 93 I started to really get into dirt bikes and boy oh boy was this one of them! Man the memories.. I miss being a kid / teenager.. the 40s aren't the new 30s if anyone lies and tells you that.. hahaha thanks for the great content Joe, you're a great mechanic!
700 dollars for a 30 year old dirt bike with bad tires, bad trans,wont start?
Thats a 250-300 dollar parts bike.
All the same....Excellent Video. You taught us well. Thanks , Man.
If ppl wouldn't buy them for 700. Sellers wouldn't charge 700😂
@@jakeowens1770 well put!
Put new crank seals just in case they didn’t.
Your channel is brilliant man. As you diagnose and repair the bike you say to a camera what you would say to yourself anyway. It gives you an excuse to talk to yourself as a mechanic, and get paid for it. Bravo!
It's impressive how quickly and methodically you diagnose and arrive at the solution. Very well done!
Joe, good diagnosis! The tell tale was the hard stop trying to go to 4th and 1-3 were good. Shift fork install lacked attention to positioning of fork pin. Can’t wait to see you rip it around.
Great project. For many, the Cr125 was their intro to dirt bikes.
Great content and well filmed and explained . Great show man. Have watched you for ages now and taught me loads. Thanks SWJ.
Thanks for letting me sit in your shop and watch you work. I always look forward to your Videos. Thanks for the hard work and great camera work.
When I was like 13 I got my first honda 200s 3 wheeler and loved it. Then I traded that for an 83 honda 200x. I did I rebuild on it. Top end and clutch. I didn't have my dad around to teach me. I just took stuff apart and Pais attention. I would love to get a honda 250r. V been watching your videos non stop and the play lists. Thanks for the hard work. Keep it up
Full teardown and great troubleshooting. Great vid as always . Great to see how the gears work, great video .
I learned lots of information about the operation of a manual transmission watching you today. Very good lesson for us! Thanks.
Ive been watching u for years man i love your work love what you do u have helped me learn so much about buying used bikes saved me lots love u man
This is my favorite type of 2Vintage video to watch, but man, the beginning of the project was going so smooth, kinda hated to see you have to crack the case; but, gonna make for a nice bike (good video content too ;)
I"m seeing a blessing in disguise here Joe.. 700 bucks and a few days of labor on your behalf and man you're going to have a smokin' early 90s Honda on your hands worth a fair penny in today's market! That bike will be a little ripper if I remember the 90s at all (I do) and one man's minor mistake (but it DOES happen) is absolutely another man's fortune! What GREAT find!!! Nice work man
Fork rebuilds are actually pretty easy to do,I have a 85 kx250 & a 06 rmz450 that I rebuilt the forks on both were a success
Love the videos man. Been a fan for a long time. It amazes me you put out a vid almost everyday. Keep it up
Full teardown and great troubleshooting. Great vid as always 👍🏻
Love the videos man! I just started as a tech at a Powersports store and I’ve loved watching these as to help get use to things!
I made exactly the same mistake when i rebuilt my first ever bike engine. I Had zero experience with anything mechanical and it was a huge learning curve .That was when i was 16years old way back in 1979 .My trusty old kawasaki Z250. Great memories,.I was gutted to have to strip it down twice but i never made that mistake again. This is a Fantastic blow by blow account of how to do it by the way. Keep up the good work my friend.
Glad you got it figured out, i had something like this too. They said it was a 2001 yz125, wouldn’t go past 3rd gear. Turns out it was an 03 w 5 gears as I opened up the cases, went thru the tranny. Someone added another gear, now I’m ripping it. Your channel taught me a lot and give me confidence in fixing something that isn’t running or running right, also ppl who follow you and give tips, I like to read your comments and add that to my bag. Thanks Joe!
Joe is a beast so dam good an calm I wish u were closer I bring u bike I bought face book yz125 2003 an it didn't have 2 gear an missing alot of bolts I'm putting alot cash into it I plan on racing it against new bikes I'm wip there ass old against new
I have never heard of a yz125 being built with anything other than 6 gears. Most people can't be counted on for accuracy in technical specs.
I didn’t either until I got this bike, and did my research.
I really like how you tested the transmission great video looking forward to next one 😊
A good tool for when you need to pry some covers off, is plastic bike tire levers for a road or mountain bike. They’re small for tight spaces but will help keep from marring gasket mating surfaces.
Thata a great tip
Very nice diagnostic for the shifting problem. Good job
Most underrated CZcams id say entertaining and teaches people about bikes
Love your videos brother. I learn so much each time. I would never have the nerve to tear down an engine like you do but it's fun to watch from a safe distance, lol.
Lol i'm a look and don't touch when it comes to internals myself
It's a 2 stroke.. A monkey could rebuild a 2stroke engine. Don't discount yourself so easy man!
Thanks, Joe, as always another learning/teaching moment. Pains me to see you bend and twist working on the engine, engine OUT on the countertop/desktop. Ergonomics, make yourself comfortable first.
Who cares f him
Finallly more Dirtbike content!!!! Been asking for it
that CR was on a shifter Kart at one point in it's life - that's why the is a brass plug in the case by the reed block, that's where you would put your fitting to run a pulse line to run a fuel pump
Love the videos man. Thanks for making them
id order up a set of sprockets too that front one is toast. great find that one . id convinced myself one of the gears was in backwards but forks in wrong order is an easy one to do . but bad that didnt test trans before putting cases back together. but this is gow we learn
Love your videos bud. Keep up the hard work
Hey I’m impressed
You have found the issue 🤔,
Lucky the g/box never smashed to pieces, keep looking it’s easy for the same to go wrong again, saw you buttoned the box together for rebuild 👍
Need to clean it up before dissembling. Also, please get some drift pins and a decent hammer. Perfect!
Great to see how the gears work, great video 😊
Love your videos brother keep up the good work!!
A viewer from the UK thoroughly enjoyed this video, when’s part two out.
😂 This is showing how inflation and recession has hit the market for geez junk. Will you win or loose😮
Man I’ve been watching this channel for a long time ! We’re gettin up there bud!
Love this channel man. Great for learning how to troubleshoot
Incredible video and outstanding content. You are amazing, please keep them coming. Never miss an episode.
Another great day for an video upload soon as I wake up
My friend, you are a good mechanic, I can learn a lot from watching your CZcams channel, keep up with the good work.
this dude taught me a lot Especially diagnosing
Great Job breaking this down. To bad we couldn't see the end result like when you fire it up and test drive. I was really enjoying this video. Word to the wise, Complete your video or part them, don't leave cliff hangers. 👍😎
Dude crazy you take apart the whole engine like nothing. I had an 88 CR125. Due the power band kicks in and hold on. Super fun bike to ride. Looking forward to the reassembly and trip to the land.
Hope to see part 2 and make it run !!
Love your videos man I'll be watching this tonight
Good fix. Well done. Whilst its out are you going to mic up the crank width to make sure it's pressed together correctly?
Joe great video.👍 I was a racketeer back of my day. All I can say is I won a couple. I lost a lot. Keep going buddy you're doing a great job. 👍 Now I work on lawn mowers and chainsaw. Don't forget where you come from. 👍
I saw you doing something in this video around 18 minutes in that I thought that you would have known. When you think the engine is flooded, you need to hold the throttle wide open with the choke off and crank it until it clears out the excess fuel. Don't keep operating the throttle off and on as you crank it.
He's been doing that habit of his for years now. Common sense to hold throttle full open when it's flooded, but I guess he doesn't know, and twisting the throttle every time just continues to flood it.
Great job another one figured out like we all know you will thank you keep them coming. Im also recovering from surgery so in bed to lol
Excellent work, great to watch 👍
Great video man, your damn good with those motors. Cant wait to see what you do to this one!
Good Job Joe! Some guy's tired, gets in a hurry, makes a silly mistake, and it doesn't shift.
He may have even known it, but just didn't want to unbolt that engine, split the cases, buy another Gasket set, and put it all back together.
Sometimes ya just are sick of something, and the idea of tearing it all down again. . . Well, just one of the reasons why some people drink?
I'm just glad you are putting a spark plug in front of your black glove like it's helping out veiw. I'm sure you better not change. Did you ever try to make your own gaskets? You can buy the material and it's kinda like arts and crafts ✂️😎 good luck
I like to call up my dad or a friend to pull me with my truck anytime i get a 2stroke thats been sitting and wont start. Makes things a lot easier
Great to watch, love the content. Pretty sure after all the attempted starting that you'd be able to kick start a V8 lol.😂👍
Remember the kx80? Glad to see you’ve learned about fuel in exhaust systems
You solved that one, it happens more frequently than one would think. Rule of thumb check that it shifts before joining case halfs like Joe did and once more when halfs are joined but before the final bolt torque. We'll done.
As always, you done a good job. I think it wasn't shifting because it didn't have enough oil.
Great Work! I have a 1985 yz250 that i cant find a decent whole powervalve assembly for. Where do you buy your vintage parts from? All the ones i have seen are crazy expensive and do not look the best.
Great video work and your a super good mechanic great job
How could previous owner not have figured out that the choke issue was reason it didn’t start??? Such a easy & obvious fix.
Right? Genuinely confused about that
Killer video dude..nice job 😁👍🔥
You make it look so easy I need to get out in the garage! Let me borrow that press :) I am looking to buy another dirt bike what state are you in?
Love your videos fantastic very interesting real builds dirt bikes thanks 👍🇬🇧
Brilliant . Great to watch you strip that engine . Really enjoyed that. Well done finding that shifter fault .
Those notches looked perfect in the basket
As always a fantastic job!
Amazing how u do this so fast and diagnose the shifting like that on the bench.
Good to hear you getting real about these builds and talking like someone who's been around it for years instead of sunshine and rainbows and the seller said it was great! Lol. As you said that thing is a clapped out piece of total shit that up until a few years ago with youtube making these things worth ridiculous money should have been tossed in a bonfire.
Easy fix, just time consuming. Great find
Dude your camera angles are immaculate
Red plastic kit would blood good on the bike love the awesome content keep the cool videos coming.
You should grab some plastic wedges instead of using screw drivers to pry it open
Great job that’s a lot to remember without a manual
I bought my son the same kind of bike and always had trouble with it but i could usually get it running pretty quick and easy with a little bit of work. When it ran though it was a fun little bike! My son loved it and i rode it as much as he did. That bike would rip!
I love your signature 300 kicks yeah baby
Feel like the carb being initial issue was pretty obvious although do like the troublshooting process for those with similar issues
Great video! Thank you!
Mad skills!! Well done
Exactly what I’m trying to do with my time. Buy, build and hopefully keep my collection lol
of all the years i have been going on bikes rebuilding them etc, i never new about the choke adjustments
Great job finding/fixing the problem! Have run into that myself in years past where shift forks get installed backwards or out of sequence. Looking forward to the next video on this bike!
2nd video I saw where you drained the coolant and oil into the same pan. Here in the US it's easy to recycle used oil. Coolant, not so much.
I had the 94 CR250. I preferred the steel frame over the aluminum.
Great channel 🦾🦾🦾how you track the problem is excellent🤩
How do you organize yourself. On a engine teardown? Bolts nuts bushings etc.
You've got a great little bike for the money. Aren't you glad you're able to repair 'em? Can't wait to hear it scream. Wheelie time! How far can ya go?...👀
a quick tip for you on honda egnines, they are completely interchangeable from 1988-2002, you cna put a 2002 cylinder on 88 cases and vice versa!
Connecting rod maybe. It’s a bit sloppy 😅
My 01 engine looked nothing like this, good catch
This is gonna be me someday I can’t wait man love ur vids keep them coming
It has an oil check bolt to check oil. . Side to side play in two stroke rod is fine, lets oil into the bottom bearing.
It's high time you invested in an engine stand, young man
Always check for a "in specifications " leakdown of the crankcase seals is your 1ST step in checking the mechanical health of a 2 stroke. It will not, absolutely not , start and run properly with leaking seals.
