Hello, Im new to biking and this website and I'm having a few problems with my recently purchase 2009 XT125R. It always had problems starting by electric start and sometimes needed kicking over. However the battery will not charge and is permanently dead, I get the dash and lights when the engine is running, but occasionally I do loose it for a few milliseconds. I have used a voltmeter and the battery is around 10v when the engine is not running and struggling to push 12v when running. when I rev I don't seem to get any more voltage so believe its not charging at all. I have recently changed the front bulb to halogen bulb as the standard one is not capable of seeing anything without street lights, im not sure if this is having an effect, however it was always a problem before I changed this. help..........please Thanks

Hey guys. I've recently hit a tree stump on my 1986 XT 400 and broken the gear shifter shaft (luckily I have another XT 400 for spares). The shaft has broken flush with the motor, so no way to reattach (weld etc). I have searched and searched for a way to change this, does anyone know how to change the shaft? The only way I can see is to drop the whole motor out and disassemble the top end to be able to even get to where I shifter shaft is, I've asked a few people and all they say is "You should be able to just slide it out" however it is not this simple. Any help at all would be appreciated, Cheers, Ricky.
