 :D yeah Dave I have noticed you have the dream thing nailed 8) I'm aspiring but I'm stuck in the pseudo dream with the TM and F11 ::) I was nearly going to mention why not a KX250 instead of an RH but I'd have been incarcerated yet again and I've only just got out :D

Next Question on Suzuki RH250's.

Where is/Who is the source for good Plastic's and RH Reference Material? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Mark, thanks for putting me in touch with David.
Kevin you can use a '74/'75 TM front guard, RM250A rear guard and RM125M/S sidecovers. Vintage Suzuki carry most of those plastics otherwise Ebay is your friend :)
I have some printed info you can copy and so does Dave.

John,
        Is it possible to get that info in electronic format? I will ask david the same question. Thanks John.

I remember Peter Ploen picked one up localy [manawatu area nz]  quite a few years ago now but in our vmx time], how the hell he found that i'll never know but i was a bit annoyed with myself that i hadn't heard about it first lol since it was hiding around here somewhere for years no doubt.

It was very interesting reading back through the old thread.

I think I paid about $1,500.00 for my RH75 back in 1975. I traded a 74 Maico 250 in on it at Mayfairs Suzuki.  I bought a RM125S as well later that year.  I traded the RH in on a RM250A late in 1975 and then Mayfairs (who I was working for in 1976) swapped the 250 for a 370A early in 1976.

Its funny when you think back it would have been great to keep the bikes you had back then, but money was the problem.

It's interesting to see KTMaico was going to race his RH75.  I haven't seen his Maico or the RH on the track yet.
