Default yerfdog 125cc

I found this add for a 125cc yerfdog. I doesn't run, he said it needs new rings. Is it difficult to change the rings? It looks like a good kart.

That's a Spiderbox and not a totally bad price. I would see if he can be negotiated a little more and go with it. Rings are not too bad a job but I would also want to know why he thinks that is what it needs.

I would rather put a 150cc on it. I found one on Ebay, Do you know if it will fit, or should I look somewhere else?

I see them going anywherefrom 7-8 hundred running in good shape. I would go look at it to see the overall condition ie. tires, seats, paint ect. also check the front suspension for play and the rear axle for being bent, than offer accordanly. If all it needs are rings this is no problem, tell him you want to hear it run or at the very least make sure the engine will turn over. The only differance between the 125cc & 150cc is the cylinder and the early model 125cc used the small valves in the head. Prior to upgrading the 125cc to 150cc Yerfdog started using large valves in the head so it will depend on date of manufacture as to weather it has large or small valves. If you do purchase you could up grade the cylinder to a 155cc with no machine work to the case. If you have any questions please feel free to give me a call at 662-301-1563 TOM

Can you send me a link and a list of what I need to up grade it to a 155cc? I want to get a estimate of the cost first.
Thanks

I looked at it today and it was in very bad shape. The engine was in pieces. I will keep looking. Thanks for the comments
