RM125S 1975 Resto

[Mark Austin]

Hi lads,
Does anyone have a set of forks that will fit this bike? The original forks are badly rusted, and I really don't want to get them rechromed unless I really have to.

Does anyone have a reasonable set of forks that will fit - maybe from a later model?

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks mate, but I just need the parts, not another bike.
Cheers,

auscobul check your PM's

Brett, got the picture thanks. I'm buggered if I know, it does look extremely like the correct tank but if it's aluminium then you have something extra special indeed I do remember that bike now I see it..least I think I do. Nice KX400 btw

Check out the bike on Dave Miller Concepts website, one of the most beautiful bikes I've seen...

Hi Martin,
I saw that - it looks brilliant, I think I might do a similar version - if I can find the right coloured plastics.
Cheers,
Mark

That is a nice bike on Dave miller... Not too much Bling. Just good basic claen look with no shit hangin off it.
Beautiful...
Cheers Brett

Mark,

I had a look at a M or S 125 the other month. It was in South Western Sydney and was for sale at a reasonable price. Had a later model motor in it so I went with a RM125A instead.

Give me a call on 0407 915 014 and I'll dig up the number for this bloke. Had a perfect original tank, down pipe, usable forks and a couple of other bits. I can help with RM 125 rebuild info to as we have 2 so far and both worked out great
