Swingarm of the gods 2

[DR]

hmmmm...I have the PP no-dive setup I was going to fit up to my 2nd 400C (t'was going to be a loosely based '78 Gunter replica but that idea got shelved due to lack of interest ) I think I still have the detailed fitting details you once sent me Rod so I may just have to resurrect the project

I was going through some of my old mx videos recorded off TV back in the 80's and found a video that my cousin recorded (those big mother ones that rest on your shoulder) when i loaned his brother my PE175X....i figured about 1983 as my PE still had a "P" plate displayed.
I was watching the video about a month ago and noticed one of their mates with an RM125C and it had the PP no-dive set-up on it.
Funny looking back at that video nearly 30 years on as there was my PE175X,RM125C,RM250N,YZ80E or F and an XT250.

I wish I had a standard muffler, but how does this look?

[DR]

looks the goods Pete The gear lever looks a little high for my liking but eh..ithat's just a personal thing

[monaro308]

When i was chasing parts for my RM125C restoration,i would email a question about the part for sale and then add the "oh by the way,you wouldn't happen to have the rear muffler from that bike?"
One rear shock turned into 2 and then he happened to still have the muffler for an extra $20.00.
The week before i missed out on one for $100.00....to say i was pissed off is an understatement.
One minute i would have paid to get one....after getting mine for $20.00....i said,geez i nearly paid $100.00 for that muffler? 
It pays to ask more questions

Help is on the way, fleabay just yielded a decent looking muffler for $14, plus $500 postage  plus a Tony D yellow front guard so I cooking with gas to tidy up the outstanding issues.

Thanks for the photos and tip on curing the muffler droop, I will be making some adjustments. So this weekend should see the 125 finished and back to working on the Harley.

Gee Pete, that muffler looks the goods.....where did you get it?

[oldfart]

Hey Pete ....I saw something simalar to that  on the weekend, they must be pretty common

Chris, I need the gear lever mounted that high, I had heaps of trouble getting my boot under it to change up when it was lower.

John, a little bird gave it to me...

Stew, nearly as common as arse holes, everyone's got one.

That as a package just looks shit to me.....nothing gells.....exhaust looks like its off an 80, plastic tank looks crapola(needs an alloy tank), RM on the seat cover is pissed, the yellow ign cover looks like its made from a plumbers water pipe, fork boots...yuk, every peice of yellow on that bike is a different shade, muffler looks dodgy, swingarms obviously bent after landing from a jump?, porkypine head doesnt suit it (you NEED to send it to me Mark), apart from that it has promise but I wouldnt want you to decorate my bedroom!!! . I think you should pack it into boxes and send it to me before the style police charge you with cruelty to RM's.....or the secret Suzuki agent 219William Doe arrives and saves the day ......and also gets the girl!!
