YZ125 barrell
« on: May 13, 2013, 12:17:06 AM »
Has anyone bought a new barrel for a 08 YZ125 before, or can they be repaired?
Found a bike with a stuffed motor going for cheap and in the owners words it needs the following:

"Needs new barrel and piston as on last ride the ring broke and then scored the bore"

Any idea what a new barrel costs, or a ball park figure to get this up and running assuming the bottom end is all good?
Probably hard to tell, but figured some of you gurus might have a better idea than me.

You shouldn't need a whole new barrel unless something went right through it. Worse case scenario you can have it re-sleeved for around $200 I think. With that, a top end kit for that bike should be about $120 ish depending on who you go with. That will come with new piston, rings, wrist pin, and all the gaskets. To do a quick check of the bottom end condition, try to wiggle the fly wheel. Any movement = blown bottom end bearings.

As above. If it is only scored you just need to get it re Nikalsiled.

If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

Doesn't Athena make a top end for this bike?

Athena has kits, as well as a 134cc kit.
