The good:
Mostly unmolested bike in much better than average condition - still has the original front tyre!
Decent compression.
Good spark.
Good chain & sprockets (believed to be the originals).
Original levers, grips, etc.
Old style Renthal bars (straight originals included).
Good rear tyre (about 70%?) and very good replacement front tyre included.
New VMX-Plastics front number plate.
Almost brand new NOS/NLA LHS side-cover (see pics). Excellent RHS side cover. You don't want to know how much I paid for these...
The Bad:
Something wrong with the kick-starter mech. I discovered a circlip off the idler gear, and replaced it. On the third kick, the gear lever didn't return (can easily be pulled back up by hand). Then I got the poops and decided to sell the bike...
Gear lever wobbly in pivot (Davey Crocket can rebush them).
Rear guard could do with being scraped back.
Other stuff:
Autolube all present and intact, except for the oil tank cap. The side cover on the bike has the factory oil-pump blanking plate, which I think means its a YZ125A part(?).
Spare, original handle bars are straight and not cut down, but could do with a rechrome.
Front numberplate not fitted to give buyer the choice of original fittings, or the later style wire clips (I can supply the later style).
I cleaned the carby float bowl, and it was free of the usual gunk.
The old gearbox oil came out beautifully clean, free of sludge and/or 'sparkly bits'.
After the kick-starter screwed up, I clutch started it - bike fired and ran but stalled before I could find neutral.
Anyhow, here's the pics:
