    I had an 85 Rm125, brought it from a friend that bought it from another friend. Ended up having to put a rod in it, new cylinder, piston, rings, etc. Bought a rear shock from Bates and was able to have a local buddy use parts from the original and used 1 to build a good one. Went through the front forks, added a DG works Pipe and silencer, did a little port work on the cylinder and rode the crap out of it. Traded it off, after I bought a 94 yz125 basket case and rebuilt it, for a Polaris Scrambler that need a bunch of little things fixed and then sold it off. Found the RM on Craigslist local to me about a week ago doing some randomn searching. Looks pretty much like when I owned it other than someone painted some plastic black. The kid I originally traded it to trashed the rod the second or third day after we swapped, after sitting for a couple years in boxes he finally gave me the money to put it back together. He rode it a couple times and sold or traded it to what I assume is the craigslist seller. It had nothing for bottom end but always ran well on the pipe. I rode Rocky Ridge, Red River Motorcycle Trails (Bulcher, TX), Lake Murray, and the local hiking trails on a regular basis.


    We also have a 76 Mr175 Elsinore with @ 1400 miles and a 76 Mr250 Elsinore with 146 miles. Pics of the 175 Cleaned up.

I'll just have to park it and see if anyone still makes a top end kit for a two year only, thirty year old, oil burner. Ah, the joys of old two strokes. The damn thing was fast as hell on its last couple of rides, lol.
