Keep yer grubby mitts off mine.  I have 2, one going and one in bits awaiting a gold lotto win, to put back together.  Nearly have all the bits, for number 2.  The one I have running is a freak.  I started collecting bits for a build up a while ago and after buying a frame with an IT175 motor resting in it and a few other bits, I was offered a complete bike  excluding the front forks and wheel.  I had it running that afternoon with other forks and wheel. I then pulled the motor down and put all the best bits in it from what I had collected.  I bought US competion yellow plastics for something different. I had a coil pack  fail, and a crank seal fail first up.  Since then it has not missed a beat.  It drags my sorry 100kg around no problems at all. (Don't report me for cruelty).  Not a show pony by any means.

A lot of people rubbish the Js now and did when they were new.  I loved my mine in 82 and love mine now.  It has been a great bike.  Not getting any parts out of me, but will help out in other ways if I can.  There are always heaps of bits on Ebay in the US.  There must have been a few million of them sold.

Thanks Retro NOT!!
I think you sell me all your 125j's and parts..LOL LOL

Just joking.I am glad you like it. I also had one in 82 and LOVED IT!!.  I have a runner at the moment but is in need of some TLC. RAdiator hose has been deverted but seems to run fine. I wont be starting to resto it until xmas but thoiught it wouldnt hurt to start hunting for parts.I will most likely take you up on your offer when I start.

hey getinold.  Did you just get yours from Ebay.  I saw one go there a week or so ago.  Mine has the radiator top hose rerouted.  I was thinking about getting the parts to do the next one properly, but some of the parts are no longer available, and I guess are quite unique to the H/J 125s and 250J.  Would be nice to do though as I like things to be correct. 

I also run a boost bottle (YEIS) from an IT175. I did this back when mine was new in 82.  Apparently they are snake oil, but I don't know.  Since I put it on I have stopped balding and some of the grey hairs are getting darker.
