I believe the problem lies in the head because I experienced excessive smoke , poor performance at low speed and wide open throttle, overheating and knocking Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

I have checked the valve clearances, I'm not sure they are bent or anything I have done the timing numerous times but I haven't gotten anywhere. I appreciate all the advice and the help and tips .

well it's been sitting for a couple months it's pretty much brand new I only got it last November. Yeah fuel and spark are good. Well I havn't done a compression test but trying to kick start the bike there isn't much resistance? So I'm not sure if that helps Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

That's okay and yeah I had those thoughts going over in my head, you explained everything well and I understand . The only reason I asked is because the 125c I have isn't running I think I need a new engine so I thought I would just buy a new engine for the bike but I'm thinking of getting a...

Yep that's the one, oh okay well what would suggest for wanting to get a bit more speed or power the only upgrades I have added or changed is a new carburetor 26mm from dhz.com Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

Hey guys I have a 125cc gmx rider x 4 speed manual i am just wondering if I can upgrade the engine so put a 150 in it ?? Without having to do too much tinkering around like welding or cutting pieces off the frame

Sorry for the confusion Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

I will try that but the clutch cable is brand new, and I thought having no resistance in the kick start has to do with the compresseion, okay maybe it might be the clutch slipping. Well my bad if I was wrong about the problem being compression still kind of knew to all of this stuff, I've been...

Thank you okay first thing yes there is resistance when in 3rd and 4th gear, so I've done as you have said put the bike on a stand unhooked the clutch cable from the arm adjusted the actuator rod even though it was good but the clutch is still not disengaging while holding the clutch in 1st and...

Okay thanks for the reply, okay first thing the clutch all I'm saying is there must be something wrong with the clutch because even when in gear holding in the clutch won't allow you to roll the bike so that's first thing. 2nd thing valves yes they are working right opening and closing and the...

Okay thanks for all the advice. I have taken off the clutch cover checked the clutch nut and looks alright, I noticed the washer with the locks isn't in line with gaps on the nut for the washer to lock onto it but it is tight, also did the timing the same time the clutch cover was off but still...

Okay I'll give those a try tomorrow and see how it goes. Yeah when the engine is on there's a loud knocking sound I can't tell if it's the valves or something else also there is no back preassure Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

Yeah mate I did that and everything looks good and clean, what should I be looking for when taking off the cover Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk

I have some new news, I'm able to bump start the bike in 2nd gear but I think something is wrong with the clutch because even when I hold the clutch while in first gear the bike wheel is locked also while running it makes a loud knocking sound
