A real legally registered CR125!. Still has the compliance plate. i would leave it as a enduro bike because you wouldnt be able to get another one easily registed like that anymore, it would be a shame to convert it back to MX. It might also be of more value to someone else as an enduro bike. Anyway your bike, your choice :)

I agree 100%.



Hairdo, I've got a front wheel with the correct a silver hub - wanna swap?

Leave it alone!!!!

You don't see many WMWs out there that are that complete. You would be mad to make it into just another CR125.

Ride it to the shops for a bit of fun, but please don't convert it…  8)

Thats a sweet looking WMW,i also agree,leave it as it is.
A real head turner and talking point.
I'd probably take up drinking or smoking just to ride it to the shops and back! (well maybe just ride it to the city for a caffe latte and and park it on the footpath just because we can ;D ;D

What a bloody waste. How are you going to turn the frame to alloy? Don't tell me silver frost or I'll scream.

This is my $200 PE175, I have done a little since owning it, I am just waiting to replace the rear shocks, seat cover and add some number plate and side cover backings.

I realise that you're entitled to do whatever you want to your bike Darren but I'd have thought that an astute collector like yourself would see that preserving a rare (and immaculate) WMW CR125 would be preferable to turning it into a replica Mugen. I'd be looking for a roughy to start the Mugen project, there's got to be a bunch of them out there rotting away in garden sheds just waiting to be discovered  :o. They weren't exactly rare in their day. ;)
