really appreciate your method for fixing things as you work with what you got before just going and buying a new part(the PVC and tire rigging). I'd like to see some more Jimmy-rigging!!!
I’m a dingus and did the opposite of you. lol. I got mine to ride with my son and literally bought every aftermarket part and beefed it up immediately. Gotta be honest though I love my little ssr. Things awesome! First things I changed are pegs, longer shifter,better tires, nibbi carb and jets, exhaust, new plastics, pro taper bars, re geared, tall seat, better rotors. Things a beast. But I am going to do the lifan 150cc swap over winter just because. 😂 I like tinkering and I have grown up money. Not brand new Honda money. But Chinese engine swap money. 😂😂
Bought 1 for my nephew, we motarded it so he can ride it on the Go-Kart tracks here in Norcal. Only problems we have had is that the header nuts try to come off and the rear shock was trash. Replaced the rear shock with a 1997 Honda CBR 600f3 rear shock and it was a direct bolt on. Stiffened up the rear end real good. Just had to mount the res. These are great little bikes for the price and as long as you change the oil they run for ever. We got his in 17 and it has been track rode since the 2nd week we got it.
I will be looking at your other videos and see how hard your smashing it THANK YOU VERY MUCH. No fr thank you lol i am finna watch the vids and see how it i also got one recently and i want to build it a bit
Your probably not going to see this but I have the same bike and I broke the back rim spokes and I was wondering if you happen to have a spare back rim and tire that I could have. Thanks for your time.
the bike has a clutch or is that another brake lever on the left handle bar? sorry if this is a dumb question to you but i grew up in the suburbs and i dont know anything about MotorCross but i am really contemplating buying one
Dylan Weldon not thirty minutes I would let it warm up about 5 minutes. Sometimes I would just start it and cruise it first till it was kinda warm then take off haha
I recently bought an ssr125 and I’m currently trying to fix it ran out of gas riding and it won’t start I put unleaded in it but I’m draining the tank and putting 91 in and hope it’ll fire lot easier and new carb new clutch lever and shifter and new throttle assembly lots of work to get it back to running again I’ll need help if anyone got any suggestions it has spark and compression no fuel or air
@@l3rodyyy73 i just went for a long ride a few days after getting it and the long screw that holds the motor onto the frame got loose and the motor fell down lol
Bashar Algahim that’s tough. I want one for myself and my little bro but I need to be able to take his keys when he’s acting out 🤦🏾♀️ guess I’ll have to go for an apollo
Ky Riley LMFAOO Those Apollo’s I heard they’re actually really reliable I think more reliable than the ssr idk but they are almost the same and the parts are easy to find for both but idk why I like the ssr better haven’t tried the Apollo to really give it a review but from what I hear and see they’re good bikes
@@basharalgahim63nope, Apollo uses Ducar or cheap Lifan engines, they're absolute junk along with X-pro brand. The SSR uses GPX engines which are high end Zhongshen's I believe.

Awesome review man!!! Everything you said is exactly what I have gone through with my ssr !!!
WV MOTARD thanks man! Yeah I'm impressed on how its held up so far.
GZ moto yeah I put on new tires which made a big difference!!!
After all the time you heading this is it good
I'm gonna be nice(r) to mine so yeah it should hold up for a good while. Sick. I just hate the whole loctite or die thing...

How was the chain when you dropped the bike and the front tire
sick yeah thanks
Looks like a super bike
Good review. I just got one a few weeks ago and love it so far.
boostedfiveoh yeah I love riding it. My brother might get one now too after riding mine and seeing what mine has been through.
Awesome man!
I've had mine for 3 days and I can't stop riding it. It's a ton of fun!
Hows it holding up, to date?
@@reneerothwell8972 It still runs like a monster. I did have to clean out the carb once. First bike to learn on, perfect. Steal for 900 bucks!
Mine is a 2020 ssr125 and seems bouncy when going over a few bumps in a row. And way I can fix that? I’m 5’7 and 160lbs.
Why are these hard to find in Canada?
Good review! Gunna pick one up in a week. Looks like your out in northern Cali. Be cool
Your probably not going to see this but I have the same bike and I broke the back rim spokes and I was wondering if you happen to have a spare back rim and tire that I could have. Thanks for your time.
a friend gave me a rusty chinese pit bike very similar to that.....yes it needs locktite
the bike has a clutch or is that another brake lever on the left handle bar? sorry if this is a dumb question to you but i grew up in the suburbs and i dont know anything about MotorCross but i am really contemplating buying one
Snootches Bootches no worries, but yes that is a clutch on the left side of the handlebars.
thanks
Snootches Bootches it’s been a while since this vid was uploaded but If u want a dirt bike then get a Honda CRF, they are way more reliable
@@SethHartley The SSR 125 is $960. The Honda CRF125F is $3,099, 3x the price. Is it 3x as good? Somehow I doubt it.
Did you let it run for 30 minutes when you first got it or just jump on an go ?
Dylan Weldon not thirty minutes I would let it warm up about 5 minutes. Sometimes I would just start it and cruise it first till it was kinda warm then take off haha
Need link! To get those type of plastics!!
I think I just ordered crf 50 black plastics from eBay

My motor fell off today with the pipe 😢

Does it have a key?
No or atleast mine doesn’t 💀

🏁👍
What site did you get one from?
watandost Ipicked it up from a shop near my city that sells them
do shops have them cheaper or online sites?
watandost it was basically the same price as online just didnt have to pay or wait for shipping.
thanks a lot man!
watandost no problem anytime!!
Where do you buy parts?
Tbolt has parts for it. Most crf 50 parts work as well
Damn good
👌
no reason to use 91 octane. compression ratio isn't high enough to need it. 91 doesn't give you more ppwer
I use boat gas 93, no ethanol. My little xpro 125 does have a tad more get up and go with the higher octane than using regular 89. It just does!
I put 108 octane in mine and it runs great better than 91 octane
