A couple of possibilities; install a new air filter. The old one may be partially blocked up due to not being fully dried out. Drain the carburetor float bowl. Water can collect in the bowl and cause the symptoms you describe. If you have already drained the carb, re-drain it. It may also be that the carb needs to be disassembled and cleaned. A bit of trash may be blocking a jet.

The previous owner of my kx85 2004 had lowered the mono shock how do I adjust it so the bike will sit higher
ok, its been a while, but if i remember right, on one end of the shock you should see a series of "notches". what you'll need is a spanner wrench to rotate the shock until it catches on the right "notch" for the ride hight you want. hope this helps

How do I higher my 2004 kx 85
if the bike is to small for your the BEST thing to do is move up in bikes, if you can ride a 85 you'll have no problem on a 125, if your feet dont reach ground thats fine your are not on the ground when your flying in the air over that 100 foot double.
Good luck

Welcome to the world of 2-strokes. It is normal to have some oil residue build up each time it runs. You have to wipe them up frequently. You could have the dealer check to be sure the oil injector is set correctly but DO NOT attempt any adjustments of your own. Always use the highest quality 2-stroke oil you can afford. Enjoy riding like a bat-out-of-hell...

Transmission oil is the engine oil ... I suggest you become a member of the Kawasaki Riders Club http://kawasakiownersclub.com/

Where isthe oil filter on a 2003kawasaki125 kx
There is no actual oil filter on your bike. The oil gets dirty and you change it. That is the only "filter" for the oil in your bike.
