What piston did you use?
How's the pump set up
May want to take the exhaust off and check the piston through the exhaust
And temp and fuel _________________ ar125 a1 1983, ar125 b2 1988, ar125 b4 1988, ar125 b7 1991, kinroad xt50q 2011

the piston and rings are oem brand new the barrel was honed.
pump isn't set up, running premix. 40-1
i did put in premium fuel for what it costs.
temp was ok just above half way on dial.
was about 9000 revs when seized |

how many miles has it done since the rebuild?
just wondering as i almost seized a kh125 after 10 miles after a new piston/rings
jetting, plug ect..
any anomalys l
also take the exhaust off and you can inspect the piston and how oily is the combustion chamber and exhaust
also going to sound dumb here but fuel starvation if its running premixed cause somthing like that? _________________ ar125 a1 1983, ar125 b2 1988, ar125 b4 1988, ar125 b7 1991, kinroad xt50q 2011

Hi Fazey,
do you mind me asking where did you get the headlamp from, as I reckon it really suits the bike and I like the clean lines created by the lack of the nose fairing?
Also, are the clocks standard or from a different bike, as the look quite different from those fitted to mine?
Congratulations on your award at CMC. _________________ Kindest regards

Hi reggie
The headlight is off eBay. There is loads on there. You need a 7 inch one to match the fork width. You will also need to buy the headlight brackets. Don't buy them to short you will struggle with the wiring.
The clocks are standard they are the earlier model clocks. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the nice comments. |

Hi Fazey,
do you have an E-bay link for the supplier of the headlamp and (more importantly) the headlamp brackets?
Regards

Oh that's really not good..unlucky!
I've got one of mine next to a radiator and has been like that more than a year and thankfully it's not attracted that same problem.
Looks unusual too like the shape of a round sticker or something that was on the tank before sprayed? Glue residue reacting under the paint? I'm sure a paint expert on here will know better than me what the cause is...

His Howie. No idea because the tank was like that when bought.
But I suspect it may have now. |
