I have an 93 rm125 that sat for four years it starts up fine but the chain and brake disks look a little rusted? also my front forks seem to be leaking? can i do them myself or is that a job for a pro? averall the moter and things are just dusty and dirty is there any way to really clean that all up safely without ruining the carb or moter? thanks for any help!
Take the air cleaner off and plug the hose with a balled up grocery plastic bag to keep water out. Wrap the carburetor with several layers of plastic too. Buy a small container of GUNK, and paint it on the engine, wheels, chain, and frame. Don't put it on the gas tank or seat. If the fabric on the seat is in poor condition, cover it with plastic too or you will have a wet **** for a week! This GUNK turns grease and oil into soap which then washes off with water spray to leave aluminum engine parts looking brand new. Buy a can of chain lube for the chain--plain oil flies off at speed and leaves an oil line up your back. The front fork seals can be taken care of any time. The rusty brakes will take care of themselves with use. After spraying it clean, dry it off and remove the plastic. Replace the air cleaner with new if it looks oily or is damaged. Take the machine for a ride to dry off those hidden places. Good luck!
