    DARN the Bad Luck! (Honda CR125R Dirt Bike Engine Seized)

    TWO DAYS AGO I bought a 1989 Honda CR125R so I could go dirt riding with my son, who also has a Honda 125 dirt bike. I paid the equivalent of about $500 for it. Well, I tested it before I bought it, and everything was fine (except hard starting with the kick start). Went riding today and the...

    Dimotiv Engine Guards

    Anyone try these Dimotiv engine guards? They look the same as OEM ones but they list them as 1985-2003 only. Is something different on 2004+ ? http://www.dmv.com.tw/html/front/bin/ptdetail.phtml?Part=DI-EG-YA-01-C&Category=371013

    Engine weight

    does anybody know offhand what a stock complete motor weighs minus starter and vboost. I'm trying to calculate shipping and I'm afraid my fat butt and the Max's fat motor would break my wife's skinny butt scale.

    Brown engine covers

    WTF was Yamaha thinking with the brown engine covers? Does anybody like the way this looks? Are black replacement covers available? If not, it looks like the 2017 60th anniversary vmax is all black so maybe those should fit.

    Low engine compression.

    I was changing out my sparkplugs today and decided to check my compression while I was at it. The numbers I got seem pretty low, 125-130psi. This is 97 vmax with 29k miles. The minimum according to the manual I have is 170psi. Wondering what I can expect on an engine with this mileage, any...

    Engine hoist to pull motor?

    I need to pull the motor on my Vmax. Do I need a hoist to do it? For the guys who have done this, are there any other special tools I would need? I would like to be prepared before I get started. Thanks in advance.

    Engine parts or whatever

    So I want to do a project with a bunch of engine internals. Pistons, crank, cases, whatever. I want to make a table that's sort of artsy, but made with stuff I actually like... you know.. Vmax stuff. I've got an idea but no parts. If anyone is dumping stuff from one of your broken motors, let me...

    '96 engine parts for sale

    Decided to part out the engine I have that busted a con rod, mostly because I've run out of time. I believe the crankshaft is bad, and the balancer shaft is pretty beat up, but I think most of the rest of the engine is salvageable. It's a '96 with 10k miles on the odometer, but for some...
