Honestly I enjoyed the bike, but the amount of money we dropped into that bike to keep it running was astonishing.
We could not stop that bike from over heating….
My father in law stepped in when he thought I was doing something wrong on the maintenance and took it to his mechanic. Made it one moto before it over heated.
Then we Swapped the radiator, put oversized caps, all new lines, etc. Made it all of another moto before it over heated….father in law, fully perplexed, paid to have the bike ran through top to bottom. Replaced anything that looked even slightly a miss or could have anything to do with the bike getting too hot….made it half a moto.
When back to the mechanic, and his exact words were “either throw the bike away, or burn it”
Thanks. Just. How. They. Be.
Pit Row
Forks were junk, PDS tries to kill you in anything above 2nd gear whooped out trail, vibrated like a mofo, welds looked worse than child labor, subframe was made of tin, the engine was the most gutless and slow thing I’ve ever tried to ride, Magura hydro clutch didn’t engage until you had the lever all the way to the grip, ergos were weird, and the bike just felt extremely top heavy and unpredictable.
Runner up was a 2007 KTM450SXF my pops bought brand new for my brother, my dad tricked it all out with tons of KTM SXS stuff and what not. Took it to Dade city MX with 5 hours on it and it died in both motos and wouldn’t refire. Put a couple motos on it at home and it was fine so we drove all the way to muddy creek MX for some big race and it stalled on him on one of the big triples and he got a little banged up from it, wouldn’t refire once again. He wound up racing his old 1998 YZ125 in the 450 classes since my dad and him had lost all faith in it. Traded it for his first truck like two weeks later.
Dad swore he would never waste another cent on a KTM, then when I got to 125s he really liked the idea of the 150SX, we bought a 2016 125 and 150 and they have been been absolutely flawless bikes for the amount of hours and abuse I’ve put on them. Seriously impressive how far that brand has come in the last decade or two.
The 450 still hurts, because it was one of my all time favorite looking bikes and with the FMF SXS exhaust that thing barked so hard. I will always remember the few times my brother was able to rip that thing and how good it sounded.
Just started racing, bought it brand new, pain to start, felt heavy
Poor choice on my part
I was born in 2001, in 2019 i bought a 01 kx125 and rode it a few times when my 19 kxf 250 was under maintenance, it was a really funny bike.
Power was all on the top end but what would you expect from a +20yrs 125.
Also, it was a little charged on the front end but... overall i liked it!
Sold it after 4 months, too expensive to maintain 2 bikes.

I was letting this go waiting for the post. It hasn't come.
The 1973 AT125 Yamaha.
What a piece of absolute crap.
I don't think details are necessary.
