minichopper · 08-12-2008

Hey we bought a kx 125 and cant figure out the engine year model i know the frame is 1987 so I ordered a piston for a 1987 but it is to long and hits the crank so can anyone tell how to ID the year of the engine Thanks

minichopper · 08-13-2008

will this also work for engine ID
I assume the engine has numbers on it to
Thanks

Your vin number should be on the neck of the frame where the forks connect on the side in a vertical position. The engine should match the year on the VIN unless someone has completely removed and swapped engines!

minichopper · 08-13-2008

I kinda think the engine has been swapped

A more well versed person here will have to help you on that I am not sure if you can ID with casting numbers on an engine??

For the engine number, look close to where the kickstarter goes into the engine. It will be on the top of the engine. Post the numbers.

found it guys thanx! Its an 86.So now where do i find an impellar.Question #2 Where can i find an impellar shaft for this year? The local shop here in town says the discontinued it! I've tried to order it from bikebandits and they say they said they cant find it and would refund my money in 20 business days if they cant find it! Do i have any other options besides ebay where i can't find it either.I am trying to replace a waterpump seal and that impellar because i was told i had water in my oil.

Look on eBay for a used one. You may even stumble across a new one. I am always constantly searching on there for parts for my old bike (ok, bikes).

minichopper · 08-17-2008

hey
I have looked all over the engine and these are the only numbers I can find

DE18805

KHlKX125
