83-85 kdx200

Post by Blang0371 »

Ok let's start with how I came about this bike a friend of a friend used this bike in the trails many years ago but sold it on Craigslist to some random person... That somehow didn't know it was a 2 stroke and ran pump gas 87 threw it and locked it up the man then resold it back to the friend anyway it sat for awhile and now it's in my possession, information I received is well 83-85 kdx 200 and that is exactly what it is he had rebuilt it a year before selling it with a Wiseco 711M06600 piston that is for a 86-06 kdx200 and it ran like a champ till he sold it and Mr random locked it up so after removing the cylinder it's rather bad but I'm going to send it of to powerseal with a brand new Wiseco 711M06600 piston now that said bottom end "seems" to be ok anything I should check?

Welcome to kdxrider.net. :bravo:

I would be real worried about the connecting rod bearings, main bearings and crankshaft. No oil = no good. :shock:
Thank you for participating on kdxrider.net. :bravo:
