I need to get my KX 125 fixed somewhere in the DFW area. Can anyone recommend a good shop?

A bunch of things I think, The clutch doesnt disengage when you squeeze the lever, also i think it has some major blow by as you can spin the tire in first and hear the motor compressing.

a 125 doesnt have much compression anyway, if the bike starts easily then its probably fine on compression. I would change topends on two strokes about every 50 hours of use, any longer than that and you run the risk of a skirt breaking on the piston and possibly chewing up the cylinder...

as far as the clutch not disengaging, more than likely the clutch basket is notched up but you can fix that yourself by removing the basket from the bike and using a file to remove the grooves

Or adjusting the damn cable...but it likely needs the plates changed.
