01 Mike Brown replica build Kx125

I hear you on building the replica.  Sticking with the same is looks good.  I'm jealous of your build!

My bike took ten years. 

Owned bike for 19. Blew up after 7 years of abuse. Stored until COVID shut down. I was buying parts here and there. Finally had the time. Mine did not come out as nice but still lots of fun!

Sounds like fun. My 1st ride in 12+ yrs at Denmark was a blast. For practice it’s usually hard pack & tough I Love it. I would prefer deep sand but it’s really fun. I didn’t walk the track I just went wo rt away. 1 hill has 4 lanes of floater jumps 4th gear on the gas good you’ll clear it clean. My favorite floater you land in rough holes then hit the inside rut in 2nd get on the gas click 3rd wo on the short up hill run & it’s a fall away jump. It surprised me on how big it was 100+ ft fall into the valley. I hit that 1 a little slower the rest of the day. Sat I blew my back out pretty bad in the cold working on a vehicle. I just had back injections on 3-21. More on 4-18. Horrible timing. Denmark on race day is totally diff . Kinda of loamy , watered , with good traction. Later on it gets hard pack. 

Google Denmark Mx scroll down there’s yt videos by Zach. It shows the track pretty good. The fall away off the hill is bigger in real life.  You can come up short on the jumps, next lap just a little  more gas & you’ll clear it. Rpa off road is the site for the track. Info to become a member , races,etc. it’s 200 for the yr.  Other 125 riders say it’s great for 125,s the track has a nice flow. Another track in the flat pit area. With another for 50cc beginners. Races r non ama  pretty laid back old school vibe. 125 class is 150 a,b & c double gate drop I think. 40+, 50&60+ double gate drop I think. There’s 80,s,90,s class put a decal ovr your frame. Just say it’s a 99 I don’t think anyone would care . 50 bucks unlimited classes . Something new he charges 50 to race Mx or his off rd series. He had a off rd race yrs ago at Navarino ski hill. It’s sand I trespassed & made a track on the hill in 91.  I don’t think the ski hill is on the schedule now tho. 

It’s back to cold here . Snow off& on all day& night mon. Today windy & cold. Sat Denmark 40% rain 31 in the morning with a high of 45. The high temp recently hits at 5pm. Too cold for me. Plus I get another back injection Friday.

 I got this rear brake reservoir made.

Original melts with heat from silencer pipe.

I had started a thread over a year ago. Wanted rear brake reservoir a vitalmx user responded. 

The thread got deleted idk how.

What fuel are you running?.

Strange that the bearings failed. I loaded up my 05 & dropped it at a shop to get a crank changed. It was raining ice pellets then rain. I plan on selling the 05 but that will be tough. Time off isn’t much . Did ya hear about western Wi. They got nailed hard with snow. Weekend forcast is horrible.  If you ever make the trip to Denmark. West of GB 8 mi out on hey 29 a shell station has 110 leaded at the pump. It’s out back. A 50/50 mix with pump your KX 125 would Love it.
