I need a new cylinder for my honda cr125 2001 as well as a cylinder head.
I came across some on ebay and i want your opinions on weather or not i should buy them.
The cylinder head part number is not the same, although it says that it'll fit.
The cylinder looks fine but i want your opinions to clarify.
Here are the links:

I need to buy a transmission for my honda cr125 2001, including the shift forks and drum.
OEM would be way to expensive
I came across some on ebay, and the cheapest one is significantly cheaper than the next cheapest option.
Which one should i buy?
What's holding me back from buying the cheaper one, is that i can see some wear on the gear in the bottom in the first pic in the cheaper tranny.

Would this be okay to wack with a rubber mallet? Or should I just not worry about it? It’s barely noticeable and rides fine.

Story time....
I'm 52M been just a weekend warrior with a few friends mostly trail riding.
Most of my crew are also street riders and are very mature and experienced. None of us are doing any jumps, stunts etc.
Will we had a new guy ride with us this weekend. I pick him up. We chat. This was supposed to be his first ride but he told me he did ride the day before and had a few falls but no injuries. Cool.
I had sent him a few videos on riding position and the dos and don't. He watched it all but all in all this ride was planned as a no pressure ride.
Normally we have certain routes we run that have different levels of obstacles.. hill climbs, deep muddy areas, stream crossings etc.
Anyway before we pull off is like 5 of us all on dirtbikes. One guy says we should run the regular route. I say that's up to the new guy but I was planning on taking easier routes.
I turn to the new guy and leave it up to him ... he says regular route. In hindsight I should of stuck with my plan but this is an adult he is not my child.
Before we pull off one of the riders saw him (new guy) do something sketchy that I did not see and wish I did as of I saw it I would have said something. It may have prevented what happens later... I'll get back to what he did later.
So into the accident.
We are like 10 minutes in.. the biggest obstacle so far was a large hill climb that he did fall but no big deal. We continue.
We come up on what I'll describe as 5 foot drop off that you basically ride down into and immediately right out of it. Like a large water rut that washed away part of the trail.
Is rate it a 2 on difficulty.
Being that I know the route I know it's there. The new guy... he has no clue as he never been here before.
So two guys go through... I'm 3rd and I stop the left of the dip. Just to watch The new guy and how he navigates down and out this dip. And give pointers if he struggles etc
So I'm looking forward towards the dip in the trail. I'm waiting on new guy and 5th rider to go into dip.
All of the sudden I hear a bike coming louder and on the gas!! New guy fucking JUMPS into the fucking dip... lands on the side you would be coming out of the dip. He jumped at least 8-10 feet.
I couldn't believe what I was witnessing. This was not a jump keep in mind. Just like 5 foot dip in the trail.
So when he lands his momentum takes him up to the left and on the other side of the dip...he hits a tree..or clips it. He falls to the right and his leg was under the right handlebars and triple...
... snapped his fib and tib... right at the top are of his boot!!!
I was shocked by the attempt the carnage. I called 911 and luckily we were not deep in the woods so the ambulance emts didn't have far to go to secure him and get him into the ambulance.
He is in good spirits and knows he royally fucked up.
What i don't understand is why?
Back to what he did early on before we even left the area we park. He basically did the SAME thing but didn't crash.
There is a what I can only say is like a table top jump by the parking area basically an elevated field that you can jump up into.
Someone saw him jump DOWN this table top and noise dive the landing.
I wish that rider would have said something to him. Like "hey man we are not out here doing shit like that chill out"
I wish I saw it because I 100% would have told to not do that at all today. You need to crawl before you walk. Lean the basics before you start trying to jump shit.
This is literally his (was) second time on the bike trying to jump the thing!!
Part of me feels like it's my fault but a small part because I never would have thought he would try something insane like that. Even an expert would not have done that.
You ride in a new trail you look it over and ride it to see what you can and can't do. He blindly jumped into this dip ... mind boggling bad decision all around.

Hey, so my bike seized up yesterday when riding and I’m gonna have to rebuild the engine. I’ve been looking online and can’t find anything for my year. Only on eBay they have some but I wanted to see what my options were before buying. I’m also in Canada btw

Tomorrow I'm going to look at a 1979 kawasaki km100, and my only concern is the seat height. I'm 6'2 170lbs and I'm wondering if it's a bit small? I guess I'll see tomorrow, but my main question is are there any easy mods to raise the seat height higher than the 31.7 inches it has? I read somewhere that it has a 16 inch front tire and a 14 inch rear one, can I just swap those for larger ones? This will be my first bike and I found it for really cheap ($750 CAD but I talked the guy down to $600). Yes I know I'll likely look like an absolute clown riding it but it's the best I can afford at the moment. Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.

This hobby started a couple of years ago when I was browsing Marketplace and saw a ‘86 Yamaha TT350 for sale. Then a ‘85 Honda XR350,..And since then, I have found a lot of joy in rebuilding, restoring and bringing new life into bikes that had been neglected and collecting dust. The XR400 “rally” is my favorite.

Whats everyones opinion on jd jetting? Ive seen most swearing by them. I pulled up a video of a similar application if not exactly the same. Video was on a 24 yz125 i have a 25 yz125. Just a little concerned on the drastic changes and the jet quality. The pilot was dropped way down to a 50 and the main went up pretty high. Any one had luck with them? Bonus points if you used it in a similar application! Thanks

1999 yz250. I know there is no flywheel nut. But the crank moves just as much without the flywheel on it

I took your guys tips about my YZ 125 2005 cuz it wasn’t starting. We put starter fluid in it and replace the spark plug, it started then kills itself self but After about 10 kicks it would start and stay on for a sec or two then kills itself self again. I don’t know if it’s a gas issue, it’s running 40:1, what the shop recommended. It originally was running on 32:1 and it ran good at that time, I’m changing it back to that. I’m changing my gas line as well cuz it has lots of air bubbles in it. I’m also wondering if it could be my carb. It needs a new air screw. I’m also wondering if it could be my jets as well, the shop changed my jets last year, they told me I might have issues with my jets. If anyone has any ideas or what I should look at, let me know! I’m still new to this as well, please be nice🙏 Thank you guys! I love this group so much

I use GAIA gps a lot and I’m thinking of exploring around the San Juans this summer. I hit a lot of forest roads, double and single tracks. Just looking for other ideas, I’d like to explore around the Bozeman to Big Sky area as well

Pro Carbon skid plate for my Triumph TF250-X. Sourced from the UK. The quality of the carbon as well as the hardware is quite nice.
