Newbie from Lincoln

Hi I'm Ben from Lincoln UK, I do have a trail bike but ashamed to say its not a Honda!
I have a Kawasaki KMX, 125cc
Like anything with 2 wheels and an engine basically, but the offroad style of bike is my favourite!

Hi Ben from Lincoln
Great place to be from - can't say the same about your choice of bike though
Only joking - welcome to the forum

Dont listen to em' My KMX 125 (now the other halfs) has been on the go since 1990. It has done nearly 30,000 and has only ever had basic maintenance. Still got the original piston in I think?!? just not right is it?!?!

Finally popped me cherry!

The piston was even siezed into the barrel after a few years out of use in cellars and lofts for storage, but free'd up after filling engine with diesel. Just needed new rings.

Still going strong today (fingers crossed!!)

Welcome Ben, I also a lincolnshire lad was running a KLR650 up until recently, It was super reliable and a cracking all round machine which is why my son's now got it....If your KMX is as reliable as that you haven't got much to worry about

thanks for the warm welcome everyone
digital captive, yeah mine has done 15000 miles with no probs so far. does your son ride the KLR650 on the road? I'm very tempted to get one of those myself

yes mate mostly on the road, although I did a little offroad on it but nothing too dramatic. They're a fantastic bit of kit and you wouldn't regrat getting one, I certainly regret losing mine

It obviously did not cause you a dislocated shoulder when you dropped it.
