[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 221772, member: 3959"] I got it figured out - a comedy of errors as they say. So heres the whole story; When the kiddo crashed he bent the clutch lever, and stripped out the shift lever, back in April. Then it got friggin hot and everything stopped for 6 months. So 2 weeks ago or so I ordered both new levers. Shift lever went on fine, but the clutch lever didn't fit my perch, so I found something lying around that sorta fit, installed it, and [I]that [/I]was the problem. Cable was too tight. Then the aforementioned situation. It had a lot to do with me not turning a wrench for 6 months, and when I put it back together a couple hours ago, when the clutch arm was too easy to move, it was because I didn't remove the shaft from the cover. Once [I]I read the manual[/I], I figured it out. Crazy huh? So now I'm ordering the correct perch, along with the valve shims for the kx250, and by next weekend I hope to have the yz125, the kx250, [I]and[/I] my yz250 going since I just got the replate and cylinder back for it. One way or another, I'm going to the track next weekend. But after spending 3 hours on a buddies KTM 125 last weekend, I think I'll be taking the kiddos YZ125. Thanks again for y'alls help! [/QUOTE]
