This channel is getting better and better every video! I can totally see this channel blowing up someday

[@MattBerger02]

I appreciate that man, thank you!

[@fosterkatchen7010]

Matt Berger no problem. Keep doing what you are doing and I will always stick around 👍🏻

[@teejayandmarissa]

Hey Matt , where did you get the vent lines for the carburetor?

[@scottnilsen7285]

I’d have agree keep up the good n pump some content love em

[@toreg]

My dad used to lay the bearings in the freezer before installing. I have added heating the cases, they just slip in there. Nice job, I am enjoying these videos!

[@jakubnemec1637]

this is so satisfying to watch, im so happy i found you

[@TimCutugno-zk5pz]

The little finishing touches fresh bolts new fuel breather hoses make all the difference. Great video mate.

[@andrewjoseph1766]

This was a really great video. Mad props man.

[@MattBerger02]

I appreciate it

[@johnny44k]

That engine looks amazing great job

[@JBFromThe3]

very toughhh🥵😍from this you definitely help give me an idea of how easy it the rebuild is

[@MattBerger02]

It is easy! Just take your time and watch KZbin videos!

[@motocaleb7508]

I love how you reuse what you can instead of buying new

[@JourdonGulick]

Everything vapor blasted looks amazing. At the moment I just polish everything I can with a dremel and buffing wheel. Still looks good, but definitely a step below that vapor blasting.

[@MattBerger02]

Yeah I honestly wasn't even planning on getting anything vapor blasted, but a buddy said he'd give it go for cheap, so I went for it. I think I would do it again and pay someone full price for the time savings alone lol

[@liampresswood6231]

How do you get them to stay looking like that though once the bike is being ridden?

[@wandalawhern1033]

Clean motor build man! Can't wait to hear it rip!

[@MattBerger02]

Haha thanks, me too!

[@Lucky80Three]

Rebuilding my RM 125 bike…exactly what I was looking for 😭

[@Mr410sg]

Build is looking great, I just picked up a 97 CR125R to rebuild

[@MattBerger02]

Thanks, good luck!!!

[@christiancrash]

Looking sick! Good luck with the contest!

[@MattBerger02]

Thank you!

[@drcrzzy5957]

[@bertabogs6370]

[@joshuasheppard758]

You do great work sir. Love the videos!

[@coreysteady]

[@MarcosSilva-eo8es]

Its coming along pretty damn clean

[@MattBerger02]

I'd say so lol thanks man!

[@JoyronLP]

[@vojtechbilek1044]

[@MattBerger02]

[@bigggdongj]

[@nevinrhea9742]

[@MattBerger02]

Do it!!!! haha

[@joshr188]

Okay, I see youre from Akron area. I am also from the area. Id like to know who youre using for powdercoating, annodizing, vapor blasting, etc. Im working on a kx250f rebuild.

[@ratherfilmproductions872]

Where did you learn how to rebuild engines this is so inspiring, I do body work but I want to get into rebuilding bikes and quads sooo bad

[@tomatoknuckles]

Damn dude that looks fresh as f👌

[@MattBerger02]

Wait till you see the rest of the bike...

[@tomatoknuckles]

@@MattBerger02 Looking forward to it 🤙

[@lilbreadstick1130]

can u give ma a link to the carb hose i really need them and i cant find the right one

[@hesleyussene4535]

Top man

[@MattBerger02]

Appreciate it!

[@MurphyZR-ei9rw]

Nice vapor blasting how can I do that?

[@HooligansMx]

Heat the cases FREEZE the bearings

[@hesleyussene4535]

I love so much your channel 💯

[@MattBerger02]

Thank you!!!

[@mikehayes2975]

do you have a link to the Honda OEM carb vent tubing? i'm having a hard time locating it.

[@ruielias6382]

Why you dont use the tools to instal the engine case? And why you dont use assembly lube?

[@joelandis6734]

What is a motor rebuild like you did cost Material and labor

[@brainstain22]

I've never had a problem with namura pistons either. Actually they seem to last longer than je pistons for me. All the bikes I've put namura pistons in still run...lol.

[@thelifeofapeterson9981]

How do you know what to torque certain bolts down to ?

[@spacityangler]

What size hone did u use?

[@rossmcclure5618]

I came here to figure out what’s the deal with water pump. My engine is a 1999 and water pump is not externally serviceable. Gotta split cases

[@whip4774]

yo matt what is the diamter for the carb hoses

[@jasonalicea5786]

Got the same bike year and all want to see what u got going on

[@MattBerger02]

Get ready for the next video then...

[@uni3831]

looks mint! whered you get it vapor blasted?

[@MattBerger02]

A buddy who works at a local collision repair shop did it!

[@maxlaisson1771]

Sou Do Brasil E Tenho uma Dessa Aii

[@andrewream5279]

Why wouldn't you of put new lower end bearing's in if you already have the case split open and torn apart. Still good I would of still replaced them and kept the old ones as back up's.

[@MattBerger02]

Money. Would have been over $100 just in those bearings. This is still a bike I am planning on flipping and making a profit on, so I couldn't do everything. After inspecting the bearings, they all checked out good so I made the decision to reuse them.

[@andrewream5279]

Fair enough.

[@robertwoods2505]

Looks good man. Wanted to call you out for not using a crank puller but you redeemed yourself by using a Motion Pro special wrench on your cylinder base nuts (most just use a wrench and don't torque them) so I decided to give you a break...lol J/K

[@MattBerger02]

Haha I've honestly never used or felt like a need to use a crank puller. I do use that cylinder wrench all the time, just gotta make sure to do the moment calculations beforehand to get the torque numbers converted!

[@runkstefan9750]

How do you not have more subscribers??

[@MattBerger02]

Takes time to grow! I'm going to keep putting out content and see where it takes me!

[@runkstefan9750]

@@MattBerger02 I will be with you all the way to the top keep up the great content and never give up 👍

[@whip4774]

does it matter the order for the clutch

[@MattBerger02]

It must follow the correct order of steel/fiber plates. But in most cases, the direction of the plates don't matter

[@vasseurvalentin8606]

do you have the serial number for the oem pink hoses?

[@MattBerger02]

Let me do some looking and I'll let you know!

[@ushad]

what torques wrench do you use?

[@MattBerger02]

Believe it or not, I use Harbor Freight... I've done a bunch of research and they work very well for me.

[@ushad]

@@MattBerger02 forsure, been rewatching all your old rebuild videos. It would be awesome if you could do a buyers guide when negotiating for dirt bikes. The summers coming up and i'm really wanting to pick up an 01 cr125r.

[@jaymarshall2108]

How long did the ktm take to rebuild

[@MattBerger02]

About 2 months

[@Land1988]

Eny one got a barrel for a 2000 model for sale plz help me

[@heckenzwirn]

When I saw you hitting the ball bearings with the hammer, I turned it off

[@vinnie_.11]

The piston you got is ok but wisco pistons are way better and not to expensive

[@MattBerger02]

I've personally never had issues with Namura pistons, but from now on I will be using ProX and Wiseco pistons. It's worth the extra $25 to have that piece of mind!

[@vinnie_.11]

Yeah pro x are pretty good to and im loving these vids keep it up👍

[@gian2456]

Guys can u write me a online market for suzuki?

[@jeffreyatkin7033]

Freeze your bearings bro

[@ha11iday95]

Why freeze Jeffrey?
