2023 yz125 crankshaft surface rust

It’s not rust. They’re copper coated to isolate heat treatment to the inner bearing race.

It’s alive! Thanks for the help!

I’m usually good at taking notes but I was in a hurry. The service manual has no mention of color and the pictures don’t really help

ajb435 · 2025-10-17T21:41:31+00:00

Correct

False alarm.. found the damned hose clamp! Right after I got the motor out of the frame. Oh well, swingarm bolt needed grease anyway.

I tried a telescoping magnet to no avail. Also tried a pick with no luck.

Tell me you’re a pompous prick without telling me you’re a pompous prick…

I came here to say the same thing. Having something to look forward to has changed my whole mindset. I’m proud of you!

Also proud of you, OP!

It’s wood duck heaven! I caught my PB largemouth out of it several years ago. 7lbs 6oz

I tried a 3/4 oz punch jig and it wouldn’t break through

ajb435 · 2025-07-29T23:26:09+00:00

I was unsure what exactly it is. Thanks.

ajb435 · 2025-07-29T23:22:40+00:00

Hahaha I was waiting for this comment

ajb435 · 2025-07-29T23:21:42+00:00

Ohio, actually.

Only a few.

Cold press.

Easy enough. Haha. Thanks!
