Hi guys,
Traded a guy some paintball gear for a 125M...low, LOW compression...tore it apart, top ring disintegrated, scarred head (no valve damage), piston face, and slightly on cylinder wall...guess I'm looking at a new piston, rings, and boring jug...first trike...bleh...
Question: I know it's a Honda, but do most get rid of these, or hang onto them? I know it's not an 86-87 due to engine placement (no drop tubes, only stamped backbone), but not sure if it's a 84-85...Hi/Low range gearbox...I would love to have this to play in the mud with, but I weigh 200#, and normally ride a quad (GASP!!)...LOL...is this gonna be strong enough to really go boggin'? Doesn't seem to be much out there for the 125m...Any opinions? Tech help on the rebuild? Thanks, all!
