Great vid, the one thing you forgot the engine has a oil filter in it. It's the three bolts on the cover above the oil sight glass. Remove the cover and there is a small element filter like the ones that fit in a canister on some of the older engines. Thought you would like to know. You did a great vid that I really liked. Regards: Mark
Oh boy, the memories! I had one of those as a kid, same year. Mine ended up with a web cam, K & N air filter, aftermarket exhaust, and a cylinder and piston from a 185.
Very cool, I just pulled out my childhood lt125 been sitting 20+ years, my 9 year old what's to learn how to get it going, kids funny thou, how long before we can get it going, I'm like your a bit demanding I not even sure we can get parts, the whole fuel system is dried up, and as to why companies won't work on these old dogs, can't get parts/no following like old hondas, alot of parts are discontinued and you really on guys with NOS, Best of luck with yours hopefully I can get my old one going here too
Great vid. I have an Arctic Cat 250 and 300 ATVs that I am working on and learning a lot from all the TH-cam videos such as yours. I have never done this kind of work on these ATVs but I do enjoy it. Thanks again.
I have the same machine. Recently had to replace the tensioner and drive sprocket. Instead of buying an OEM aluminum sprocket tensioner I installed a tractor idler sprocket on the tensioner arm. Saved me about $180. If you need info let me know.
Great little video there Louie. Nice to see you got your 2 helpers learning from 'ol Dad how to do things right ! Never had that when I was a kid, mom & dad got divorced when I was 8yrs. old so I had to learn from my older brothers ,or self teach myself. Keep that up & they'll be smarter than you one day.Cheers Louie. Quinn
mine has no topend speed only goes under 50kmh if lucky and when it decides kicks in it will do 80kmhs+ but smoke and burn oil. and it doesn't smoke at the -50kmhs when it's in dumby mode not topend torque mode. and it leaks out the exhaust cover. i bought it used and never did a thing but put gas in and drive it. a fun little work toy.
I got an '86 LT230S, basically that except bigger, with suspension, and kick instead of pull. I always just fill the oil to the top line in the sight glass. That usually handles the oil circulation for me, at least.
When I was 12 my dad bought a brand spanking new 1986 Suzuki LT 185 and I rode the heck out of that little bugger, it was bullet-proof !!! That thing had a lot of top end for the size of the engine. Clocked it at 53 mph ( ~ 85 km/h ) on asphalt ( my buddy was following me with his pick-up truck ) ... had so much fun with it. My '86 had a coil-overs in the front but these were so over-sprung it was more for looks than function lolll
I have 2 185's they look exactly the same and one i snorkeled but the crank case breather has a tube pointed to the ground so i hit the water and it filled the air box with water and then flooded the carb i gotta put a straight tube from the crack to the air box and it should be completely snorkeled about 4-5 feet of water.
I have at 185 1985 and theirs an insane leak in the oil pan out the bottom above by this rubber flap not sure what’s happening but it leaked three quarts in 20 mins or less
hey, how did you get that front rack? ive been looking everywhere to buy one but cant find one so im thinking about just making one. thanks. good video by the waay
If there’s to much oil can it cause the machine not to start because that’s what I’m having problems with it won’t start i cleaned the spark plug and carb
If you still have this, can you tell me what your adjustments are on the set screws on the carburetor are please? Someone has messed with mine and i cant figure out where they are supposed to be, a great start would be knowing yours since yours is running. Thanks in advance.
I recently picked up a 1983 125 lt 4x6. Its in almost new condition with only 1000 km on it. I really need some carburetor parts everyone I talk to say i cant buy a carburetor kit and there is barley and parts at all. would u have any resources ?
I have a 84 lt 185 put new tires and had the seat redone to oringal seat was pricy its fun if anyone needs to find the year for your atv or dirtbike the 10th digit of the vin number is the year for that machine just to let u guys know
bonjour jai un probleme avec mon quad pareille il ne demarre pas et jai nettoyer le carburateur je ne reussie seulement quand je le decolle sur la compression et un peu plus loin il se noie
It looks like it's a 1985 model and I know for sure that it isn't an 84 because I ride an 84 and it doesn't have the front thing it only has the bumper the one I ride is a Suzuki 1984 lt 125
i've got two of these one since 1987 sadly they are both in pretty sad shape in my back yard but i am going to get them fixed up in the next few years for my kids.

Is that possible??? :) They are already!
mine has no topend speed only goes under 50kmh if lucky and when it decides kicks in it will do 80kmhs+ but smoke and burn oil. and it doesn't smoke at the -50kmhs when it's in dumby mode not topend torque mode. and it leaks out the exhaust cover. i bought it used and never did a thing but put gas in and drive it. a fun little work toy.
I like that you get your kids involved!!!
I have one of these exactly the same still starts first go!
I got an '86 LT230S, basically that except bigger, with suspension, and kick instead of pull. I always just fill the oil to the top line in the sight glass. That usually handles the oil circulation for me, at least.
there is a sump screen next to the sump plug its the sort of triangle looking cover with three bolts thats were all the foreign debris collect.
When I was 12 my dad bought a brand spanking new 1986 Suzuki LT 185 and I rode the heck out of that little bugger, it was bullet-proof !!!

Looks like its missing an engine mount bolt, the one in front of where you adjust the intake valve
I have 2 185's they look exactly the same and one i snorkeled but the crank case breather has a tube pointed to the ground so i hit the water and it filled the air box with water and then flooded the carb i gotta put a straight tube from the crack to the air box and it should be completely snorkeled about 4-5 feet of water.
There should be an oil filter under that cover with three bolts
I have 3 LT230gef and they are a top bike I use them as farm bikes
