By far you have the best atv channel I've ever seen! Absolutely love your videos and how in depth you are with any repair and rebuilds. You helped me out big time with my ds650 watching your rebuild vids on it
Most consistent content out , always enjoyed watching you problem solve and fix bikes , you definitely inspired me to start my own channel doing the same and I just wanna say thank you for giving the confidence
If you were willing, wet sanding the plastics with 1000 grit would make a huge difference on the kdx. A coat of WD after will give them some hydration. It already runs fine may as well make it look decent.
Get that RM125 running. People are chomping at the bit for these vintage bikes now. I restored a 1991 RM125 to like new condition and it sits in my living room👍🏼🇺🇸
That was a good buy on those but it looks like the 250s are harder to find. Everybody's getting rid of the 125s. Me myself is 250 or bigger person. But you getting a 👍 from me Joe.
@@rhiantaylor3446 people can't figure out how to buy a bike and haggle a price?? how hard is it? show up with cash in your pocket,look it over and name a price.the seller will except or go higher.you point out the negatives and say this is all i will pay. 9 out of 10 times they will take what you offer if you pull out the cash and show the green.
Got a cherry plastic fuel tank out there to. Is that a trials bike rear tire?that's completely jacked, can't believe they put carb plunger I. Upside down... frkn hilarious..😅
that is incredible!! pretty clean looking 2 you paid for the worst bike and got the best 3 free in my eyes lol cant wait for the vids to follow this!!!!
Love to see you get that rm running I bet you could make that cylinder work maybe not hard to tell from here but we'll trust your judgment if it can run you'll get it to
Ahhh yes the kicker assembly is messed up on a kawi😂 every kawi ive had has had kicker assesmbly problems but sweet deal man! Cant wait to see upcoming vids!
The 89 KX is a great bike and mostly complete (46mm forks and a great engine). The 1989 RM also has 46mm forks and has even better suspension than the 89 KX125. RM125 engines liked to blow up that year = your blown engine is typical. Great trail bikes. I have 1989 RM125 parts if you need some (may trade for something you have) when you are ready to rebuild it. (Green Bay, WI)
Man you find all the good deals😃 tough around here to find those kinda bargains.edit....89 Rm was my favorite bike, I got it in boxes, rebuilt it in my apartment most fun 😄 I ever had outta 5 or 6 bikes. I like that KDX too

Sooooo many bikes.... hey Joe you are going to need a bigger garage soon

please get the Rm 125 running that would really cool :)
#rm
rm 125
you guy are living my dream , garage full of ratty dirt bikes to work with
Is it truly a dream or a constant headache lol
Wouldn't really call then ratty some of us wish we can get stuff like this to work on, we call them projects.
yea, but no way he can do full project on all of those
@@jonwilson2293 my mrs goes off when I get a project lol
@Quirin M. exactly mfs just like the satisfaction of getting a engine that hasn't ruined in years
By far you have the best atv channel I've ever seen! Absolutely love your videos and how in depth you are with any repair and rebuilds. You helped me out big time with my ds650 watching your rebuild vids on it
Thanks man!
Bring the RM back to life
Definitely want to see a video on that 89’ RM getting put back together. Amazing job as always.
At this rate you're going to run out of garage space for new projects
Most consistent content out , always enjoyed watching you problem solve and fix bikes , you definitely inspired me to start my own channel doing the same and I just wanna say thank you for giving the confidence
I really want the rm 125 running that’s my favorite out of all the bikes
Definitely dig into the RM to try to save it. It's in nice shape and would make someone a good bike. I would be proud to rock it on the trails.
The kdx and the rm you should defo try getting fully built
Looks like the carb from the KDX had been left with fuel in it that had no alcohol. That was fortunate. No damage from alcohol.
What I use is a s.o.s pad with hot water to clean up plastics. Then some fine Steel wool. Usually works every time
wow another good score , those would have been 600.00 to 900.00 each in my area , crazy deal 👍
Always coming out with the bangers
Try a Mr.Clean MagicEraser on the plastics, with your go-to all purpose cleaner. You’d be surprised at how much of the staining comes off.👍🏼
I'm gonna have to try this, I use it on everything else
The carburetor slide installed upside down. I never thought you couldn’t do that. Now I know🤓🤣
Great content. You are becoming a very good mechanic. Try to ignore the negative comments. Keep it up!
I live in spain and even a broken dirtbike with 15 years costs 3k
If you were willing, wet sanding the plastics with 1000 grit would make a huge difference on the kdx. A coat of WD after will give them some hydration. It already runs fine may as well make it look decent.
I live in the North East and you can't even buy 1 ratty dirt bike for 600,good find!
not even for 1k 30 years old 80cc dirt bike people asking 3k
Yes, the fools around northeastern Ohio want $1000 for a 30 year old bike with no title and doesn't run. They're insane.
Yeah same
@@everready19373 I’m from Northeast Ohio too so I know the pain lol. It’s a struggle
I just bought a 2000 400ex but it's really boggy and I cant get over half throttle without it bogging out. What should I do?
Saw the title and I know it’s gonna be heat🔥
Get that RM125 running. People are chomping at the bit for these vintage bikes now. I restored a 1991 RM125 to like new condition and it sits in my living room👍🏼🇺🇸
This guy is the king dodgy! I pitty anyone he sells his “fixes” too!!
A steel liner in a nikasil cylinder usually runs hot...better to find an used one and send to millennium tech.
I didnt even realize you could put a carb slide in upside down hahahahahaah ones i use dont let you
Heck yeah..doesn't get much easier than that..good deal.on all the bikes..I wish I could find deals like that around here..love watching your videos..
Cool purchase, just one critique, steady that camera, we are getting sea sick out here.LOL
Always storing dry w-out fuel is the best scenario, Great bagains for sure
Your videos are awesome because there’s no bs just working on cool bikes 👍
U really stacking up those dirtbikes 😂
Nice lookiing forward to the others!
yes please make a vid on how to buy one:)
That’s the price of one completely destroyed bike if you get lucky enough in Ontario
Small plumbers gas torch over the plastics will bring them up like new
You should go to Kaplan's motorcycle/dirt bike museum. Some killer classic bikes you got man. Hell yeah.
That was a good buy on those but it looks like the 250s are harder to find. Everybody's getting rid of the 125s. Me myself is 250 or bigger person. But you getting a 👍 from me Joe.
Wow what a great deal you got man. The profit should be really good. But I would get a couple of them completed
Awesome bike haul. I do the same here in new zealand. Mainly honda. Z50s etc. That kdx runs mean bro. Rms gonna be mean, looking forward to the build
I thought I liked stickers...when you have stickers on your air filter you are at boss level. Lol
Hahaha
Loving the new videos, great job.
If the older kx runs I would swap that motor into the 1987
Been watching 4 ever still love to watch
that KDX is sweet! Would be a great candidate for a complete restoration. Those were some great bikes
I could never find one project bike for that money, wow! Nice finds!
Get the rm125 first. I love your videos. You teach me a lot. Luv u vintage
The spring on the kx I've seen that done before my guess is maybe it was owned by a shorter person or set up that way for a kid to ride
Yes get the rm running again.
Dude, get that RM ripping again! Same with that KDX! RM first though 😉 I think the KDX looks good with the Kawasaki stickers on the gas tank.
Just an idea (I haven’t been around too long) you should make a video on how to buy a bike for a good deal.
That depends on your area and the sellers, more matter of looking at the right time and finding the deal
If you buy bikes a lot, it isn't necessarily a good idea to tell everyone else how to do it !

hi mr. president
kwik tip if ya got spark just drop little gas down bore on the down stroke warm plug pop in 9 out ov ten it will firre 2 strokes it usually carb
Got a cherry plastic fuel tank out there to. Is that a trials bike rear tire?that's completely jacked, can't believe they put carb plunger I. Upside down... frkn hilarious..😅
That vin was deliberately scratched off
I was planning on buying that Suzuki. But the cylinder needed to be re board😂
I keep waiting for response on the 420 kawa. if you are wanting to thin the heard!! These are a great bikes!!!! Great deals!!!
Sorry that bike sold!
That RM125 is a cool looking little bike. You need to get it back up and running.
Wow good deal on the 2 strokes,good videos you putting out,love the rm
THE KDX IS A GREAT BIKE, LOVE IT, will be fun play around bike. It looks a bit taller than the 200 I got in shop.
Yeah where I live in northern Illinois the market is terrible , all those are worth 600$ here 😂
I hear that neighbor! Blow up bikes for 2k
I bought a 1990 rm 125 and I love it. I would love to see this rm run
How do you get these good deals. I live in Rockford Illinois and I never get the deals you do!
Only if I can get a deal like that in California 😭 people ask 1500 for a 19 kdx not running out here
Have you ever tried D-germ ? That stuff works amazing for cleaning. You have to order it online
We need that subscriber hookup! Can't beat that gift!
that is incredible!! pretty clean looking 2 you paid for the worst bike and got the best 3 free in my eyes lol cant wait for the vids to follow this!!!!
Great job, I really like the 87 KX125, I think that's a great-looking bike. Great deal all of them.
Basically it was the throttle plunger upside down LOL and a little bit of carb cleaning.
Love to see you get that rm running I bet you could make that cylinder work maybe not hard to tell from here but we'll trust your judgment if it can run you'll get it to
i sure like that KDX. you got a hell of a deal there friend!
Fix the 87 kx..its complete.....
Sweet KX, I like the silver painted head! edit* KDX
Great videos. Love your content.
Ahhh yes the kicker assembly is messed up on a kawi😂 every kawi ive had has had kicker assesmbly problems but sweet deal man! Cant wait to see upcoming vids!
By the way, sweet deal. I would be lucky to get one bike in that condition for $600. Do you ever get titles with any of them?
would love to see the rm 125 getting worked on next as all ways had a softspot for them since getting my old one when i was 11
I wana see that suzuki going. Thing looks sick. I always send my top ends out to millenium technollagies. They do good work
Do you still have the yamaha blaster 200
Looks and sounds like new that kdx 😮
Definitely doing your thing Joe keep up that hard work 🤟🏻💯💪🏻
The best days of the week are sunday wedsnday and Friday so I can watch my favorite yt vids
Use scotch bright pads to clean the plastics
I use a Mr Clean magic Eraser to clean plastics on my bikes. They work really good
Way to go! Love it👍
The 89 KX is a great bike and mostly complete (46mm forks and a great engine).
The 1989 RM also has 46mm forks and has even better suspension than the 89 KX125. RM125 engines liked to blow up that year = your blown engine is typical. Great trail bikes.
I have 1989 RM125 parts if you need some (may trade for something you have) when you are ready to rebuild it. (Green Bay, WI)
do you ever check the oil when you start the bike?
That rm is cleannnn
Hahaha i see ur finding the deals now bud 🔥🤘
I bought a brand new 1981 KDX 175, was an awesome enduro! bike of the year in many magazines that year :).
Awesome 1 down 3 to go 👌
Yes get the rm running. That thing is gonna be mint after.
I'd like to see full resto on that rm 125. Plastics and decals back to stock 89.
Awesome video man keep up the good work
I think I’m getting a bike to work on this summer hoping i can get it to run and new tires
You are good in old bikes keep it up...cool vlogs...🇦🇺
Man you find all the good deals😃 tough around here to find those kinda bargains.edit....89 Rm was my favorite bike, I got it in boxes, rebuilt it in my apartment most fun 😄 I ever had outta 5 or 6 bikes. I like that KDX too
Cylinder works might make another stock size cylinder for that or send it out and have it plated and the water jacket repaired
The RM125 looks awesome without the fenders I would leave it as is
Yea be nice to see you restore the rm 125 back to it's glory days😁👍
how did you learn how to do all of this? i’m really trying to get into fixing bikes
It's in rough shape going to work on it little bit at a time
