I've been away from home so I haven't been able to work on it, planning on working on it when I'm back. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

It was closest to a chain noise, I opened the cover and the top of the cam chain is solid with no play at all and the bottom is loose, I suspect the chain has got caught in between the case and sprocket in the bottomend, it happen to me when splitting the engine, the chain slid down and got...

I put all the oil in a clear 1.5 ltr bottle, it filled up about half but i did lose about 50 mls on the ground, should i put some filter paper infront of the oil to see what is in the oil? i haven't found any filing in the the oil from watching it pour and looking at it in the bottle. I haven't...

the tip of the spark plug is still intact, hope i didn't damage the piston, its got less than 3 hours on it. It shifts through the gears fine so i think the bottom end is ok.

Hi guys, I was taking my x4r around for a spin in the backyard today and while in second gear with the clutch in at about half throttle it died and made some wierd noise, I kicked it over gently just to feel what was going on and it went down 3 times without compression at all but made some...

Picked up a 03 cr 125 with rec reg today :), i was wondering if you guys think i should freshen up the top end as i don't know how much hours it has done, also how can i lower it a bit without stuffing up the handling of the bike?

Another X4R! congrats on the bike :)

Thanks for the detailed response, there's no locking up or resistance whatsoever in the back wheel after opening up the bleeding nipple, this means that if i bleed the brakes everything should be normal right?

I've been having weird rear brake problems the past few weeks, two weeks ago the back brakes weren't working randomly and then the next day they were perfect, and now the back wheel is locking up while riding? i opened the bleeding nipple to let some air out but then my brother let air into the...
