Hey guys I just finished rebuilding the top end on our 2003 RM85. I bought the bike for $200 and when I purchased it I was told the top end needed work and it wouldn't run.
So I took off the cylinder and it was pretty scarred up the head was also pitted where somthing had been hitting it. So I had the cylinder honed, new piston and rings, head etc... COULD NOT WAIT to fire it up to see how I did.
Once I got her together she started right up but I let her idle as I don't want to rev it to much breaking it in. The top of the motor sounds really good but there is a really bad sound in the lower end. Of course this is far beyond my skill level so I took a video and posted it here so maybe you guys can listen to it and give me some suggestions.
My CR125 which is next to the RM runs so quiet and smooth and I guess that I was expecting the same from the 85?
ANY suggestions would be welcome. 
I don't even plan on riding the bike much i just wanted to learn how to do rebuilds.
