TSM 2005 KX 125 Budget Build
« on: November 14, 2012, 08:53:19 PM »
Last night we picked up a 2005 KX 125 for a 'Budget Build' Project.






It came apart great, no unexpected issues and most of the parts are in great shape.
Wiseco/Pro X, FMF, Cycle Playground and Decal Works have stepped up to support the project.
Stay tuned. :)

Hopefully Decalworks has something a little more tasteful than the hideous graphics it has now.

We just dropped the frame off for some Green powder, should have it back by Wednesday. We should be getting parts in by then and the rebuild can begin. :)

COOL project, there was always alot of kx125,s at the track when there was a 125 class. The kx riders where hard core, but now ya never see anyone riding a 1990-2005 kx  or rebuilding them. I wonder why that is, there,s a ton of   older cr125  rebuild bikes out there.

This this this and this again.

Toss the current plastics and jerry rig some '12 KX450F with a Pro Circuit/Monster Energy team graphics kit.

there you go wanting to four stroke a beautifull two stroke with cosmetics, just throw some cams in it for good measure why don't you.

its a budget build guys, not a replica build  :-*

i can't believe he got it for 800 bucks, running and everything, the bike looks great already, aside from graphics, and cleaning it up a little

not sure about that green frame though

Starting a build with a KX is certainly doing it the hard way-if you're after power anyway.Sound cool though. 8)

I'd rather a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

As much as I would love to build this bike 100%, we are trying to show that for under $2,000 you can build a competetive, reliable race ready bike.
It will be getting fresh bearings, brakes, cables, rubber, RAD Valve, FMF Pipes, Wiseco top end, clutch and a few other bits.
For a little extra power Cycle Playground will be doing a $175 Stage 1 port/head mod.
Our friend Pete Baltera will be stitching us a custom pleated seat. (He did the 144 seat).
We are looking to have it finished by the 26th. I'll keep you guys posted. :)
