Motorcycle Repair: Cylinder, dirt bike engine, yz 125


Question
What is the skirt of the yz 125 dirt bike engine and where is it located.  

Answer
Hi Branden,

You're referring to the piston and cylinder skirts.

On a piston, the skirt is the lower front and rear sections. Kinda like a tail of a tuxedo.

On the cylinder, the skirt is the lower portion of the cylinder wall or sleeve.

Visit: www.bikebandit.com, click "OEM PArts" and select your MC form the menu. You'll see the microfiche parts at this website.
