Title: RM250B. RM125B
Post by: Quicksilver on August 21, 2009, 11:32:54 am

My RM250B has been fitted with RM125 front, Someone once said common swap because 125 forks are much better for racing. That opinion maybe right, maybe not, is does not bother I am restoring the 250.
Any one interested in a Swap the complete 125B front for a complete 250B in same good condition as set pictured here on my 250.

I don't think that's a 125B front end you have. I think it's more like 125C forks and wheel, triples look B though.

It probably is a B front end, the 125B used a conical front hub. C forks have extended alloy fork caps.

Its a 125B for sure. B used that hub and forks dont have extra caps.

I'm no guru, I just thought the B still had the old non conical style hub and the front angled air caps (because they are under the handle bars). I've learnt something new.
