    No no it's a coolant overflow don't put oil in it dude lol and if you always use the choke of a 2stroke on the first start of the day it will usually start easier and don't twist the throttle till she starts

      Luke Combs lmao I bought this same bike new back In 92 went to pick it up and they prepped bike and filled the coolant overflow with oil. Smh I had to argue with salesman that it was not the oil injection tank. After he found out I was right I refused bike and made them prep me another bike..

    One thing I like about you and your channel is that you don’t care if the bike is new or 30 years old. I like it because those few who does videos about little bit older bikes for the most part doesn’t make very good quality videos. And the ones who does good quality videos mostly does videos about newer bikes. And I’m that kinda person who likes a little bit older bikes. So by this I mean keep up the good work and don’t stop making videos about older bikes.

    You know you can heat treat those dents out of the pipe with compressed air. You Seal off the ends and fill it with about 40-50psi and use a blow torch and you should be able to get the dents out. As long as they're not too badly dented.

It's not a racing bike but has plenty of speed to put a smile on many faces. It's an Enduro. Not everybody does Motocross. However, I've seen these bikes on tracks. Very reliable!

We picked up the busted bike from his mansion only to realize that he had screwed us. Anyhow, I guess the wheel turns because I heard he broke his back in an accident a few months later.

But if he decides to throw oil in that coolant overflow bottle he is going to blow it up for sure. LOL why do people do that all the time just a little bit of research on the bike 10 seconds and you immediately know what that is they've never seen the coolant overflow bottle in a car before? That's a 1990's trail bike. they didn't have fans for the radiators back then and furthermore, it doesn't have fuel injection or oil injection. So what the hell would that oil be for, and why is it green? but still, people put oil in those coolant overflow bottles all the time! It's crazy to me LOL. I hope he's joking for the bikes sake, cuz that is a pretty clean bike and he might just need to do a top end on it and it'll be fine because it does smoke good and it really only sounds like a wrist pin bearing.

    Ooh, I got a 92 as well and it still rips better than most bikes I’ve ridden. That reservoir in the back is your coolant overflow. If you see oil in there, the guy before you probably thought it was oil injected. But it is NOT! So check your piston 😂 have fun with that power and. After 5th it starts to die off
    Edit- it’s gonna tick. Mines been ticking for yearrrs

    • @punkin7144
      @punkin7144 5 років тому +3

      Yes that is a coolant bottle. Also the ticking sound is from the KIPS exhaust valve. they make that sound after about 20 hours of riding. the sound only develops once the KIPS valve starts to get gummed up.

    The ticking sound is the power valve. the only time you wont hear that sound from a KDX is about 4 hours after the KIPS valve is cleaned. It is completely normal and wont hurt the bike.

      You have nothing to worry about if the kid decides to put oil in the coolant overflow bottle. Because the motor is going to blow anyway. I don't know why but for some reason people do this with these Kawasakis all the time. You don't know how many KDX is I've seen with oil in the coolant overflow bottle. I'm just curious what makes people think that a 1990 motorcycle comes equipped with oil injection & or Fuel injection? But it happens all the time. Anyway to me that sounds like a wrist pin bearing not a terribly difficult fix anyway maybe it is the Kip's valve but I've never heard one that noisy.

    • @punkin7144
      @punkin7144 5 років тому +2

      Its the KIPS valve. my KDX made the same sound that disappeared after I cleaned the valve assembly. Look up KIPS rattle on a website called kdxrider.net It comes with the territory of owning a KDX you can even search youtube for kips rattle. @@joshf8097

      @@punkin7144 cool I guess you learn something new everyday thanks boss . Now I guess that makes sense even more to my point I really hope he doesn't put oil in the coolant overflow because now you're just basically telling me that he has a perfectly running bike and he's going to destroy it by putting oil in the coolant overflow that would be devastating. So let's hope he gets at least one of these messages so he knows not to put oil in the coolant overflow bottle. Because by the looks of it that is a beautiful bike for the money
