My New Project - 1980 CR125

[spicydave]

Hi All,

Just want to share my newest restore - 1980 CR125

I found the bike in the back of a motorcycle workshop and decided to take the bugger off their hands 

Currently the bike will stay "as-is" as we have a race on the 29 May 2010

After that I will do the full restore and will look like this




This is what the bike looked when I collected a week ago





I gave her a good wash and already looking much better:




I've ordered the following parts and is waiting in need to be delivered

Tank:


New 34mm Mikuni Carb:


New Seat Cover:


New Plastics:


New Decals:


New Pro-Forma Pipe:




Thought I will share my project

Will update the thread regulary as new parts get fitted

Regards,

@ hoony - I'm in SA so have to order all the parts from the US-of-A

At this stage the bike and all the parts is not to heavy as I picked the bike up for a real bargain (I think)

Will keep you guys posted with the progress
