I'm new to this site but so glad I've found it. A lot of useful info and very helpful people from what I've read so far.
I'm the proud owner of a 1985 Kawasaki KLT 160. I've had this trike for a few years now, it was given to me... Yes given to me. No joke. The people I got this trike from
were throwing it away because they said "It wouldn't run, it's old, and dangerous". The motor would turn over but not enough compression to fire. The intake valve
adjustment was to tight. I set the clearance and POW it fired right up. It ran great for a few years, but every now and then I would have to adjust the valves to allow it
to fire up again. But now there is no more adjustment, I guarantee the valve has become razor thin. So now it's time for a top end rebuild.
