Still don't remember it ??? David you remember it on your's? Either I've got a bad memory (very possible) or America (Alpha) had a different version to Australia's. 35 years is a long time  :D

I wish l had photo`s of my RM 125 S, in those day l didn`t take a camera to the race meetings, now l wish l had. Huskie all l remember about the bike, it was stock standard, very fast bike and light. and the more l think about it, my think it was a late 75-76 model and it had a small ignition cover with a S on it.

bike was passed in at $7100us reserve not met ::) can't see any logic in that :-\  for the same money or maybe a little less I could buy a fully restored 'FMF' RM125M with complete nos hot up kit included in the sale ;)

Oddly enough a RM 125 S would be about the only Suzy I put in my shed, I still remember being so impressed the first time saw one on the track. They were for a brief time the hottest 125.
Current bikes. KTM MC 250 77 Husky CR 360 77, Husky 82 420 Auto Bitsa XR 200 project. Dont need a pickle just need to ride my motorcickle

  All the brands/models had fleeting moments on top in those times,bike development was moving so quick,and with so many different makes available you were lucky to keep track of it,changing brands/models like your undies(thats how i liked it ,trying different bikes and no big maintenance issues)but the RM-S was the start of a very good line of 125's,very reliable and fast  :) my next bike was MK 9 370 pursang, bring on the big bores!!! :D
