    I believe Walt used a 2003-2004 200SX. Hopefully, Walt will chime in.

    Cracking guide! Your teardown already helped me and this will be getting printed off and used as soon as my piston kit arrives!

    Couple of quick noob questions...

    Where are the journals that you dropped a couple of drips of oil down? are these the two holes on top of the bottom end? Is 2 stroke ok for this?

    How do you lube the big end bearing? just drip a little oil to the side of the conrod?

    What and where is the locating pin? I see your new piston ring gap is towards the inlet side, is this the way it needs to go in?

    Thanks!

    Yes , you will use your premix oil for the lube. Like you described, I dripped in the spaces along the sides on the conrod. I was more generous than probably needed, but it can't hurt.

    The arrow on top of piston points forward to exhaust. This will make the locating pin in the ring slot be on the inlet side. After you put the ring on, you will need to squeeze the ring and keep it centered on the pin as you install the cylinder.

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for the write up!!! I had never been into an engine that far before. It was super simple, I mean really simple with this guide!! Great info on both tear-down, and build... Even though i read about the power valve gasket, I too, put the linkage all back together, then realized I forgot it!!!:banghead:

    Hi Matt,
    What KTM junction seal did you use, was it for a 200SX model? My Husky seal leaks badly. Thanks, R.

    Use the one for the 125/150. It is a tight fit but it never leaks.

    Does it feel smaller than the 125 when sitting on it? looks slightly more narrow? how does it compare in weight? really looks nice

    My wife rides the same bike and I agree with you. Amazing motor and handling of a 125.
