That bike was on e-bay 2 weeks ago with a reserve of $3500. A mate of mine contacted the owner to speak about the bike & satisfied with the phone conversation went back that night to place a bid & magically the reserve jumped up to $4000. My mate felt un-easy and backed away real quick. I guess the seller thought he understated the reserve. In the end there were no bids at $4000 and it's back on for another go. Pity cause my mate would have paid close to that figure in a competitive auction.

Hey Bahnsy I know the seller and he is s as straight as a die.Maybe he realised what its worth and didnt want to give it away. PS The seller is a member of the forum.

Thanks Craig, good to hear. Still strange that it changed that way. In the end my mate bought a RM125 and paid pretty close to the asking price of the current auction.

The graphics have now been completed. If anyone is interested, in getting a set, you will need to contact;
http://www.ninetwodecals.com.au/
and ask for Mick.
Note: The plastics fitted to the bike are DC items, and whilst i think there will be stuff all differences between them and other aftermarket suppliers or genuine for that matter, there might be a slight variance in the hole locations, hence why i have designed them with a much bigger hole. If you don't want all the logo's or text, you will need to tell Mick when ordering them so he can delete them from the setup prior to printing.

The "Works Replica" is a bit of a take on the Suzuki advertising of the day. Suzuki claimed that the 84 125 was a true production works replica, much like what Kawasaki claimed on the 86 or 87 KX125.

Looks fantastic. Where can I get some WP4054 decals?

Nice bike, I like the 84 125 almost as much as the 500 ... I have GMC welded swinger and it turned out mint.

The WP graphics were done by ninetwodecals as well. If you ring Mick you may have to remind him that they are the ones he did for Bahnsy. They are an exact copy, just little smaller, 10mm or so.
