Default 1998 kx125 is stalling out

I own a 1998 kx 125[/b] that has been stalling after a few seconds of idling i have been asking around and a few people told me it was my gas mixture so i changed its gas. Another person told me it was the spark plug so i changed that but it still kept on fouling them. i also cleaned the carberator. i cant find out whats wrong with it.

Check and make sure none of your vent tubes on the carb are clogged or pinched. Had a similiar problem years ago on of my dirtbikes.

i would say that its the top end....what is the compression like and does it run at all when you rev it? usually when your top end goes the bike wont idle good or at all.......

yea....piston, rings, circlips, and wrist pin. They should come together in a piston kit from wiseco or whatever brand you get. Oh yea and a top end gasket kit too.
