So I've finally decided to bite the bullet & buy a 212 for my upcoming, ham-handed bastardization of a ultra-mega-super valuable, worth 6-figures GENUINE 1985 Kawasaki KX125 frame (made only for one year!) :wink:
So before heading out to Harbor Freight, what are the differences between the two 212's? Are the Hemi's harder to build? (parts differences, etc.?)
Not looking to build an all-out screamer, just thinking of ways to get a little extra pep & a durable engine. Billet rod & flywheel are going to be the first things done, obviously.
I figure for the same price, it's pretty hard to go wrong (especially at $100-ish).
This engine will lead a pretty easy life, it's not going to be a WOT queen. It'd just be nice to build something that could loft along at 30mph & maybe touch 45mph on an all out sprint.
