I thought I would never ever say it but I had fun on a RM 125 B.   Yes I have have had this bike sitting in me shed for 2 years finished, but have always thought it would be under powered and not up to speed. How I was proved so wrong :o  this little 125 goes like a cut snake and rev's over the moon ( not much there at  about 1/4 throttle ) but I soon got used to that.
I just can't believe how quik they go, and how little energy it saps out of you compared to a big bore .... I'm generaly firked after 3 laps
It now takes pride in sitting with it's big bore Bro's , It's not the prettiest bike in my fleet - but hey it's a rider.

Stewy, thanks for the couple of dozen laps on the little beast, I was starting to get a good handle on it by the end and sort of found it's sweet spot.
Ed we're going to have to get those two 125's sorted and built asap, going by recent reaction on this forum, it seem all 125's are starting to make a big comback in the VMX arena. Starting lines may get a bit more crowded in the future.

yup, had a few minor issues such as a wee skid and loose on the top corner in front of the pits on my very first lap :D had to swap the trick head and carb back to the stockers on the mighty TS due to detonation probs ::) snapped the brake stay arm and consequently the brake cable when it wrapped around the rear hub  :P but yeah..I had a fat time albeit in stifling heat and I'll be back for sure ;D  t'was good to catch up with people such as Pete and Ed whom I'd not seen since Classic Dirt 6 :) hopefully I'll be on my 125A/B next time also and we can all go around on our ringadings together! 8)

late edit, met Slawesy also, always good to meet other forum members, thanks for dropping by ;)
