Hi, im wondering if i need to rebuild my ktm 125 sx, the kickstart lever is extreamly easy to push down.


i bought a new compression guage it it checks out at 120 psi(max)



120 psi is all i could get, and that was kicking it fast and hard.


the bike seemed to run ok, but the way the lever kicks so easy doesnt seem right.

you can push it down with your hand and its hard to tell were the compression stroke is

thanks!

Sounds like it was due for a rebuild a long time ago! Hopefully the cylinder is ok........
