Great Job Suzi59 .... don't let the wobbly stickers worry you .... at least you're using the bike for it's intended purpose and haven't turned her into a lounge room trophy

Hey that is a great job, well done. And straight out onto the track! When does the next project start ?

[suzuki59]

Thanks guys.
Jeff  I had some jetting issues (too rich down low) but the mid range "hit" was very nice indeed.
The bike handles like all good Suzukis (awesome  ).

To coin a phrase "this ones a keeper" 

Time to have a holiday between projects, but the RM 125D will get a spruice up before our 2012/13 season kicks off in September.

In the before pic of your bike i noticed that the rear shock looks like its an aftermarket
market item.
Other pic shows you went with the stock standard item.

Hi Andrew,well spotted.The bike came with a works performance shock,which we used only the body on the rebuild,but it has a nos standard Suzuki reservoir, shock line and optional harder spring.
