Be more specific! What do you want the motor to do? How do you want it to run? What's your budget?

You forgot the small plate that holds the kickstarter mechanism. At least you caught now when it's easy to fix!

I'm guessing by the looks of the stator cover this isn't a low hour bike.

It tells you in your service manual which Yamaha part# you need to order from your dealership or online. It should be a 27mm x 1.0mm left hand internal male thread. This thread into the magneto itself and the driver in the puller pushes against the crank end with a protective cap.

I would say KW14 is up high on the list of most recents. I highly disagree with RV being mentioned in this category as I think he is the opposite of technical. He uses the bike's power and his muscles to wrestle the bike into doing what he wants. If you think that is a technical riding style, then yes...

clogged fuel filters is most likely. second check would be to pull the injector off, apply low voltage to it and spray it out. May have some debris. Off course, do this after you check all the basics. Electrical connections, spark plug boot and plug itself, bad fuel, clean air filter and nothing in the air path.

I don't want to sound negative, but if you let a stock motor get to the point where it blew up, you need to learn how to better maintain the motor before you start thinking a mod motor. A mod motor is more maintenance and you are going to have to rebuild it more frequently due to extra valve train...

360cc per fork is a good starting point for a 165 lb rider.

Unless you're willing to pay top dollar for a new OEM piece, just be patient and keep an eye on Ebay.

Lol....nothing like that feeling of having a mystery part laying around!

Do not hit the ends of the crank with a hammer. Even a newb should understand.....think about....does it really sound like a good idea to hit the end of your crank with a hammer??? You first need to take the cases back apart. lay a machinists level (or something you know is 99% flat) and make sure the bearings are...

Never work offer to work for free. All that does is tell a potential employer that you need to prove yourself to evaluate your skills before they offer you payment for your services. You could offer to work for minimum wage, which after you put in 60-80 hours per week, you basically are working for free. At least at minimum...

I couldn't do that. I've never been a napper. If I fall asleep during the day (rarely) I always feel more tired and worn out when I wake up for the rest of the day.

Out of all the bikes i've ever owned, I probably had the most fun riding around on my KLX110 that I had years ago. I wish I would have never sold that thing. The motor's are bullet proof. Just keep the oil changed and air filter clean and you should get many years of hassle free use. I wouldn't get...

sounds like bacteria microbes. Take the soles out and run them through a washer/dryer with an anti-microbial or steam clean setting. If you don't have this, you can request it from most dry cleaning services. Spray the inner boot out with Lysol. I'm concerned the microbes may be throughout the material. If the Lysol only penetrates the top surface, you...

How long till the FIM starts implementing fines for being too close to another rider in "air space?"

In all honesty, the stiffer springs you installed can only do so much to keep the suspension from bottoming. I'm willing to bet that since you are still stock on the valving, the suspension is riding too low in the first half of the stroke which makes for a harsh ride. More or less....you are relying on the springs to...

Just wide open through that bowl turn!! Anyone else notice he skipped about 4 whoops down the right side? lol...
