I'd like to see the photos.. unless his name is Gaston Rahier i doubt that it's a works bike. There weren't any full works Suzuki's here back then other than the bike Gunter, Cutts and Mclachlan guest rode in '79.

It would be RA. Suzuki didn't just give them out.. and unless the rider won a world title they didn't get to keep them.

Suzuki did have works kits in the 80's which they fitted to the Suzuki Australia sponsored production bikes and consisted of forks, shock, cylinder, ignition and pipe but that stuff seems to have vanished since then.

Yep , if there was a RA125 around back then someone would have seen it at a title event and there would be pics from back then .

Nothing would surprise me anymore after the RH250 I have seen in a home slaughter shed (next to the chook/turkey pen) in outer rural Perth this weekend.Belonging to a exbike enthuasiast.   
I pray to God that he entrusts it to us next week.
