[QUOTE="shooter114, post: 1413058, member: 85501"] hey all, ive got a 99 yz125 and after it locked up in 6th and slid for about 10m's it appears that the bottom end had seized. I removed the engine to try and split the cases and after about 20hrs it finally came out but the main frame was no longer in 1 piece :yell: so i took the top end off and grabbed it by the piston and after a quick pop it suddenly started to shift again on the bottom end, which was previously seized :coocoo: So now i'm at the stage where i can choose to fully rebuild the bike or sell it off for parts, personally i think the rebuild would be an interesting and a good learning experience but i want to know how much cost time and effort would be involved . I've got good hand tools, not much in the way of welding etc but otherwise nothing is too far beyond me. And thinking about doing the athena big bore kit/ new exhaust/ jetting and remapping the CDI etc to get the most out of her I'll list the prices of what i think i need below for the entire rebuild. essential non essential BRAKES new disk rotors both $100-150 rebuild kit both $115 brake hoses both $60 levers $10 brake pads $25 ENGINE bottom end rebuild kit $235 Athena big bore top end $660 shift lever ??? kick lever ??? a/m exhaust $350 WHEELS AND TYRES new wheel bearings $25 SHOCKS shock bearings $35 swingarm bearings $60 linkage bearings $60 steering stem $40 FRAME main frame $200 PLASTICS AND GRAPHICS graphics $75 I don't have full prices for everything and they are in aus dollars ( basically same as us dollar atm) with the extra shipping from the states ) As i can work out it'll be about $1100 to fully rebuild but without any extra's like an aftermarket exhaust/big bore top end etc. which seems reasonable to me but its the labor involved that could see me selling this off for a KTM 300exc If there is anything ive left off apart from the top end( which is in good condition - 10 hrs after rebuild ) then let me know so i can factor it in!!! thanks all thoughts previous experience and USEFUL opinions are welcomed !!!!!!!!!
