There is a small breather hose underneath the airbox. If the oil has immulsified in the breathers coming from the airbox it will not drain back into the crank and will come out the breather. Usually it will leak when the bike is on the sidestand. Take of the tank and check the breathers at the airbox. Other than that i have no idea. Good luck.

Kiitosta vaan! Tosiaan jos hyväkuntoisen KMX200:n löydät, niin kannattaa tehdä lotto sillä viikolla. On meinaan superharvinainen malli. Siksi en omastani luovu enää kirveelläkään. Paljon riippuu siitä, pitääkö olla 2-tahti vai nelari. 2-tahti joka menisi tuohon kategoriaan olisi esim. Suzuki TS 250r. Niitä tehtiin 80-luvulla ja tietääkseni aika vahvoja vehkeitä. Tosin suomessa nekin harvinaisia, muutaman olen nettimotossa nähnyt. Luottovalinta nelaripuolelta on ehdottomasti Yamaha XT 350. jatk->

Sitä on käyttänyt mm. suomen puolustusvoimat ja rajavartiosto. Osia niihin saa hyvin ja ajoltaan on semmoinen hyvä kompromissi maaston ja maantien välillä. Niitä on jonkinverran tarjollakin yleensä ja kunto vaihtelee paljon. Niitä on tehty 80-luvun puolivälistä 90-luvun loppupuolelle saakka samanlaisena, joten lastentauteja ei ilmenne. Honda NX 250 on taas vähän enempi maantielle suunnattu malli. Selaile nettimotoa aktiivisesti niin saattaa tärpätä. Kiva kun joku muukin tykkää kasaripyöristä.

XJ 600 is a very good bike for touring. Good sitting position and a pretty strong engine for it's size. Can do 200km/h anytime and riding with two up with no probs. Also very simple to maintain comparing more modern bikes. For example you can change the spark plugs without removing anything but the plug caps(takes only a couple of minutes). ;) Also the oil and filter change is very easy. I just love those 80's bikes! ;P

Nätti pyörä. Osaisitko suositella mitään isompaa enduroa kuin 125cc ja maksimissaan 35kw eli että sais ajaa nykysellä pikku A-kortilla. Tarkotus ois hommata ens kesän jälkeen siis pyörä jolla pääsee metsiin ja tiellekkin ja tietysti 80-90 luvun pärrä. kmx 200 olis täydelinen mutta niitä ei suomesta löydy juurikaan ja on kalliita :D Mutta sen tyylistä hakisin siis.

That's good to know that it can tour. I was facing buying a V-Strom 650 but not affordable right now, so it was a pipe dream. Then this same bike as yours fell in my lap for $800, and I could not believe it! When I can get the bike in hand, I will post a video. Relieved to know it's easy to work on. My other bike us a Ural, lol

twostrokesmoker commented on 19 Apr 2013

Thanks! It's clean and I also polished it with a Simoniz car wax. ;) Very comfortable bike especially when riding 2 up. It's also a real youngtimer classic. Quite rare to see on the road here in Finland nowadays. I'll definately ride it a lot during the season! Cheers...

TheChenrezig commented on 13 Sep 2013

Very cool, thanks for the info about the racks! I just bought 1988 FJ600 and wondered how I was going to fit racks and bags when I stumbled across your video. Now maybe I can do a little touring too..

twostrokesmoker commented on 12 Sep 2013

Those are the universal Kappa racks. Those was in place when I bought the bike. I can't say where the previous owner bought those. Anyway those racks seems to fit quite nicely.

TS50ER commented on 19 Apr 2013

That is a very clean looking bike! Sounds sweet as well. Not a 2-stroke, but looks and sounds awesome. Have fun twostrokesmoker and ride safe!

TheChenrezig commented on 12 Sep 2013

Where do you get the special racks for the top box and side cases?

I like to use some Carb Clean ( Cheap stuff works for me) And a Guitar string (Smallest one) When you open the carbs up, take the Idle and main jet out! Small and big, Brass in color.(Flathead screw driver) After you have them off you should be able to look inside them and see a small amount of light. (Parts you took off) Spray some carb clean in and use the guitar string to clean out any gunk. Then check to make sure your floats move smooth and dont get stuck. Thats about it.. Clean all parts

Tim O commented on 27 Mar 2009

hey you don't need to go that far. Just take the carbs off the bike and drain them of all the fuel. There is a screw on the back side of the carbs ( Facing the rear of the bike) Unscrew that until the fuel comes out repeat that for the rest. Then undo the carbs from the bike. I put a clean large rag on my lap and lay the carbs on my lap. Take the back side off of each carb ( Not the rounded side but the same side with the drain screw.) Once you get them off there are 3 brass/copper parts...

I'm thinking of getting a '92 XJ600 as my first bike & just have one question that I haven't been able to find on the internet: Is this bike carbureted or fuel injected? I need a bike that will be a good, reliable daily driver even in winter temperatures (~30 degrees Fahrenheit on a typical winter morning here). I was dead set on the Suzuki GS500E until I found out it was carbureted & would be a pain in the ass to start in the fall & winter.

@Twistedshot101 wow that sounds so much freakin better then mine... i have a 94 seca with the plastics taken off just like this one... i would love to replicate this sound... at the risk of asking a question thats already been asked 50 times... how do i go about removing the mufflers? is it a permanent process? does it involve... cutting? or unscrewing? i guess would be what i need to know

bioobird commented on 27 Dec 2010

@agangushka the xj600 is a great bike, but dont expect it to move like the cbr600's or the gsxr600's its quarter mile time is in the low-mid 13's i think. so its a little bit faster then my V8 camaro.

agangushka commented on 17 Apr 2010

hey man I wont to buy the bike and it is the same model but it is 1996 ....and i also want to make it streetfighter ....can you tell me is the bike any good ?
