So Dave, which one of the above is your favourite? You can't have 'em all, that's cheating. I've never been into 125's but if I was 60kg and cursed with a fetish for continually changing gears, I'd have to pick one of these, a '73 Monark.

So what was the attraction to ride a modified TS 125 in 1975  ??? (as per your avatar pic )

I'd blown up one TM125 and sold the other, my Dad had a TS125L that was stolen & recovered, I tricked the TS up with TM bits I had laying around so I could clean-up the club trailbike class while I waited for the RM125A to come out  :-)

Not the best or the fastest but the question is what is your favourite? TM125L
Tough and easy to live with

Had one in 1975 and have one now
The older I get, the faster I was

Well I am a big softy with most 125 models, race alot Cr125m, if I wanted to race and hope to win on a 125, I would be racing a  CR, KX they are the answer, My Favourite is,I have a soft hearted stop for the cz 125, I just love the look of them in yellow,and Bultaco Mk7, then kx, cr. BUT I do love tricked up 125 like Lee Fabery Hodaka Wolverine 125, that bike is Ants Pants.

I really like that shot!

It breaks every rule of photography, but just has a great 'feel' to it.
Which is exactly why I love it!!  ;D
