All you have to do is use an extension in the 7 mm socket and set it on the valve seal over the rubber part but it still grabs the metal part of the seal oil them up really good too and then just tap it on the valve guide
Ill give you 1700
The brake piston looks like it's at it's max, you will need brake pads. It will stop but you don't want the piston to move out of the caliper bore or the pressure will blow out the seal.
As I said before use the Dremel to cut slots, use some PB Blaster but you have to use a torch getting the aluminum really hot, the key here is lots of heat.
Are you gonna sell the kx 250 in need of one
Il giv u 800
If the kill switch don't kill the engine and it revs to the moon, it most likely means you had detonation because of 1 or more hot spots in your top... Which again means you could be running lean, using wrong plug or have a damaged top.
I was riding my 93 kx250 today and the same thing happened to me I’ve had this bike for a week now and I’m new to two strokes luckily I saw this video and knew what to do
This bike is Joe proof.....you didn't blow it up and you didn't miss any gears! lol You need to keep this one!
To bleed brakes you have to pump it up, hold the brake after pressure builds then you open the bleeder valve and quickly close it. Then repeat until all air is gone from the system. Just a little tip dude. I like that you work on bikes. Food for thought buddy.
Hey at least he's not using water anymore lol
The walk of shame 😂
Should keep that beast 👌🏻🔥
He's not
Thanks for the ride,last time I was on was 36 years ago, .
Good vid man, had to push mine home too the other day😂
2stroke mx classics lmao
Same dude I was riding and shut it off to drink water and I went to start it up and I gave it some gas and the throttle cable got stuck on full throttle 😂. When I got home and check the cable it was frayed up.
You should do an old restoration on a vintage dirt bike that would be awesome to see something from the 70’s come back to life
I agree as I have a few I'm working on now from the 70s but parts can be very hard to source and at times extremely expensive!
USPS blows for eBay orders right now. I've been waiting on items for at least 7-8 days more than I used to recently. Been ordering more from Amazon because of it. Some beautiful green country out there bro. Thanks for the video.
That 2 stroke sound 😍😍
Started watching you 3 months ago love the videos! I just got a pw80 2 stroke a couple weeks ago. 2 strokes are so much fun!
Sell the pw80 and get a yz80 2 stroke those rip pretty good
But I did have a pw80 and it almost beat my old kdx80 but they do rip I did love my old pw80
I reverse bleed mine with huge syringes off amazon and a small tube it works really well and it’s fast.
Also, if you leave the bleeder valve open when pumping the brakes, you’re not really doing much except for possibly letting air back in
Awesome,good lad thinking about the neighbours peace,excellent human being with great parent's and Chuck his Awesome bro 😎🤞🙋♂️🇬🇧🇺🇸
I hate when that happens revs high out of no where, good video man
Do you know the reason for this my 1995 kz 250 does it when riding on the road you can ride all day on trails or the track but the moment you put it on the road it starts revving high and bogging down repeatedly
U should start collecting high quality parts and build a really nice bike out of upgrades
You should check out Jennie's garage he done a video of bleeding brakes with a hanf soap dispenser it worked great
@Philip Langdon Thanks you gave me an idea for my wife's old breast pump from 1982 I'll see if I can one up Jennies Garage!
Lol that's a idea
You can tell him or show him ho to do something the right way, but it seems to take him a long time to catch on. He needs to hang out with someone who actually rides dirt bikes.
i like the bike i love seeing older 2 strokes around
Great idea hooking that hose to the bleading valve I always squirted it everywhere LOL 👍✌️
It's what you're supposed to do lmao, hook a hose to it and out it in a bottle of water to create a vaccum so no air can go back in the line. I would hate to feel your brakes
@@nathangregory9002 I've been bleeding brakes for 30yrs and they work just fine You do not have to do it with a hose but it is much cleaner I have to say If your trying to tell me you have to bleed the brakes that way to get them perfect your full of shit
Nice video, like when you go on test rides after working on em 🤙
Everyone knows chuck would’ve just been ripping through that water
Chuckster is a beast!
Yeah that 92 kx is well taken care of over the years 😎
Never seen siemone so afraid of mud and water while on a DIRTBIKE
Ya it’ll teach you to put 1 gallon in your bike
I noticed that when he adds fuel he just puts in a little bit like its liquid gold or something.
2vintage: *sees puddle* ohh cant go through there
Thought it was hot lava.
It's my neighbors property. I cant dig it up
2vintage Yeaa ik I was just sayin
you are sooooo lucky to have rain we are drier than a popcorn fart. I watch alot of your vids and enjoy seeing someone who knows what he is doing.I used to ride dirt every day and a bunch on the weekends.
Joe would you like to explain why this 92’ kx is posted as a 95’ kx? Not so sneaky Joseph
oh my bad I keep thinking this bike is a 1995! My kdx was a 1995! I will change that. Thanks for letting me know. I even had 1995 in the description lol
Everytime I ran out of gas in my two stroke I was full beans so I didn’t know that they would do that and rev out
When 2 strokes run out of gas they typically do that next time keep the clutch out it’ll just bog out
Or fill the the tank!
Jay franklin it bogged out before he pulled the clutch in typically in high gear if u jam the back brake it’ll stall the motor I’ve done that on kx250s in the past when the kill switch fails and throttle sticks
Love the videos
I used to have one of these bikes, Man I miss that bike! It was an awesome bike!
bike is running really rich especially down low
The bike sounds great.
can someone please tell me why you would take your brake reservoir off the mount and fill it up with fluid instead of cutting the zip tie off the frame guard and doing it the right way.
the Exhaust pipe goes over the top of the reservoir lid when its mounted to the frame, so you cant access the ttwo philips heads screws to remove the reservoir cap unless you first unbolt it from the frame and pull it away a bit, this gives you access to the screws. The problem is the exhaust, the heel plate has nothing to do with it.
People who rev it with the choke on👎👎
Little revs are supposed to
Downfall of a two stroke
kickstart with the boot pedal good and be happy
Rear brake pedals need 2 to 3 mm of free play. After that free play travel, the pedal should come to a nice solid-feel stop at, say 12mm downward. Not solid? Bleed the rear cylinder again. You had an odd way of bleeding the brake. ...........Pump the brake four times...keep pressure on the brake pedal and don't let up yet. Reach to the bleed valve and let air and fluid escape and the pedal should sink to its lowest point of travel. Continue holding the pedal down at its lowest point while you tighten up the valve. Should be noticeably better. But if not, repeat the above procedure until the pedal feels solid (and no more air comes out of the opened valve.) Same thing with the front brake. LOL, same thing with ALL car brakes.
Nice bike 👍
When you lean it out like that you hit the kill switch
You should get a wrist pin bearing while your at it for that top end rebuild. Dont need no piston slap!!
Very nice bike
You might want to make sure your gas is mixxed and good and your jetting is good to. As well as your reeds. If its hard to start its your reeds alot of the time. And bogging can be a jet issue
I had an '83 RM250 that used to do that, and like that, kill switch wouldn't work at high RPM, never did find out what the issue was because I sold it...thing was a death trap...
Wow, cardinal rule about 2 strokes!!!! Don't run out of gas at high speed! Could have locked the piston cylinder up. Could have damaged the bottom connecting rod bearing. Restarting it? Here is a case where you shoulda put a little oil in the sparkplug hole and and cycled the kickstarter about 10 times. And then watch it smoke to burn all the oil for a minute or so. LOL
I wish I had a dirt bike
Wow that thing sounds brutal. Hooe you sorted it out before you sold it.
Sounds like the bottom end bearings are bad. Has some sort of grinding crunchy noise when he revs it. Besides the clutch
i just got a 94 kx250 bike is all parts in a box any pointers? any tips
this is my 1st bike and 1st 2 stroke
Hot 2-strokes can suck a tank of fuel dry super fast. Had a YZ490 that burned a good 4 tanks of fuel to each tank my pal burned riding his XR650 thru the exact same terrain.
Bike sounds good,I'd like to have it..
The first time that happened to me I pulled in the clutch didn’t even slam on the brakes just locked up and that folk is how I learned my clutch adjustment was messed up from the last owner
You should get every 250cc 2 stroke from every brand
For what your asking for it 2300 does it come with all the spares seeing as you only paided 1200 for it
I remember one day riding to my friends and the chain popped..had to get towed back.
Hey, enjoy watching your videos, tbh I'd love to see a quad bike engine swap project. Engine from a bigger street bike.
250 or 500 engine into an 80cc would be good
@@2strokemxclassics I was thinking more like a big street bike engine in a quad bike body
@@pus8075 yeah like an 1100cc into a banshee frame
@@2strokemxclassics maybe not a banshee cause they are somewhat rare and that would just ruin it, but something like a yfz450 or a raptor 700 would be perfect
That's a good speed
You need to be sorting that chain out
If it hasn't been started then why feel the pipe? Of course it's not going to be hot 😂
To show viewers that the engine is cold or you'll be called out!
@@wd-40everything65 I know people are trolls...who cares how many kicks as long as it starts and runs good
There are things about this bike that is off for a 92. I had one and it didn't have a 6 speed. It also had blue anodized forks. Are you sure it isn't a later model? Have you checked the VIN to confirm?
Agreed . I had one to . Blue forks . 5 speed
Did u fix that rubing metal noise comeing from the cluch basket
Yeah he did on the last video.
He "fixed" it by bashing it with a hammer and "welding" it with JB
When you said You wouldn't be able it through there Talking about that small puddle. You greatly underestimate the bike. That bike will far exceed smashing any terrain far above anything your self can do., I own 2 of these bikes and been riding my whole life and my KX250 and 125 have never failed me. II am the only thing that limits a the bike. The bike is far more capable then i will ever be.
I would start with the needle and if it still runs rich past half throttle then change main one size down.
Atleast you didnt have to push it too far😬
Put the fork guards on 2 vintage please 🙏 and would u ever get a 160cc/190cc pit bike like a pitster Pro or a piranha
Why do you look down when you change gear/use the clutch?
@@sevendyseven4090 shouldnt be on a bike if you have to look to change gears and use the clutch.
What is your favourite bike out of all the ones you have
Nice bike
Can you please tell me how you get such good deals I look everyday all day and the best deal I got was a 2000 warrior 350 for $300 not running and I think it needs a stator.
More quad builds please
That bike is amazing and the deal you got was crazy
I just restored a 98 kx250 im 6ft tall and can barely touch the ground im on my Tippi toes the rear shock is nice and kush is this normal is there a way to lower it without buying any upgrades 😮
Good to go let it rip-aye
You should get a cr250 Elsinore
Mud i tell ya mud !! Dont even say it has poke cant really tell until its running A1,clutches might need roughning up too brother!!
You need to drop down one size on main jet and also drop needle down one clip position or you're going to foul a plug.
Mine does the same thing when it is out of gas do all 2 strokes do that
Did you order a new cylinder and piston for the 400? You're going to grenade your motor if you try to throw a new piston in the old cylinder!
Agreed. At least get it honed to ensure an even seal. He doesn't work on many four strokes so maybe he doesn't know.
@@jaydensdream714 The reason the skirts cracked is due to piston slap/piston rocking back and forth. Generally when that happens the cylinder is oval shaped rather than a circle, yes it could just be the piston wearing down but the cylinder is most likely junk even if the cross hatching is good then again under thorough inspection from machine shop it could be good. That's just my two cents from quite a bit of experience could save him a motor but what do I know? Just trying to give a bit of advice.
I think that scared the s*** out of him omg that's funny
Yeah that rear brake should lock up the back wheel easily not slip like someone that forgot to get the brakes done on an old Honda civic!
Its a nice bike but $2750 for a 1995 kx250 is overpriced
Yeah I paid that for mine 6 years ago and it was race ready bad ass. Lol
Hi
That’s not a 1995 kx 250, looking from video it’s a 1992, 93 shares same frame and plastic design!
93on has round cylinder head and different power valve sets up!
please no one bleed brakes like this look a video up if you need to know how
Love the vida
That is fast
2vintage i got a question i bought a trx400ex with a big bore kit but the quad lacks in power and top speed greatly it bogs just a lil when givin alot of gas and it doesnt have near as much power as a stock 400ex its got 152 main jet and and hmf slip on airbox on it revs out fully just feels like it has no power
i just replaced the clutch also so its not slipping
chain and sprockets are good
its got 20" tires on it
Or u should take something like a cr 250 motor and put it in a trx 250 4 stroke frame
Show the Suzuki Ts 125er 😊
The bottom end bearings are really loud on that thing
Isnt 2vintage in ontairio? It would be great to meet him
Dean Wilson gloves ?
I just bought my first 2 stroke dirt bike. Was wondering if anyone has any tips or advice on like shifting.
Just keep her on the pipe and rip
You better check the top end and go 1 bigger on the main
He needs to check way more than that lol
First ride since the last first ride a couple of days ago lol
🤔Think before you go for a ride I am going to need a helmet and pads in case I fall out of my recliner
Hey @2vintage I have a 2003 Honda 100 rx it runs great and it’s an awesome bike just to have fun on and I wanted to now if you want to bye it for 500 bucks
Lil biy wet bro come to Britain l(ol u shud be making that 2 smoker scream thats wa they got todo to make em move quicker haha i started and still love the 2t but i ride honda red all day 4t power buddy id smoke ya for sure big love tho and ur experience on the motors is coming on well u exel better than me good work keep it coming ur teaching me but good thrash them powrr bands haha technically a power valve if im right
