Great buy tell him to never sell it, for one of those four strokes. I made that mistake once now I'm back to square one with a sweet RM 125 as well. Go ahead and call Langston racing and get the hook up on a DOMA pipe and silencer combo for $150.00 plus shipping, Then get the V force makes the bike not so pipey, gives it a little low end. Plus the usual 50 tooth rear sprocket and twin air filter and its race ready.

Here is my RM with updated graphics I have since put some 180 Decals Backgrounds on it.

That looks pretty sweet, thanks for the tips on trimming her out. We are definitely looking for a pipe/silencer and probably some graphics. The weathers been pretty crappy here the last few days, but I keep going out in the garage to look at her. I feel like I'm thirteen again when I got my first 125.

If you are wanting pipe that will really help that bike out and are not on a budget go for the FMF SST Pipe with the shorty silencer, that is what I ran on my 01 RM 125, with a Dyna FS ignition with a couple thousandths shaved off the head the bike ran like a bat out of hell. As for the DOMA it was too good of a deal to pass up. And call Bryar at 180 if you cant find the graphics you like on the web, he can just about match anything out there you like, and you cant beat his customer service.

Awesome find, DirtySmile!

And I like the clean stock look, especially when the bike looks that fresh.

Are all of their pipes $150 or was that just a one time deal?

I picked up this 06 for $2000 at the end of 07. I rode it every week until the piston broke and then tore it down and had Eric Gorr turn it into a 144. I snuck a Messico Racing Pipe and Silencer home from Italy last year. It's specially made for the 144. Changed the suspension fluid and put heavier springs in it.

I have way more fun and ride it way more than my 450. I have only raced it a few times locally in the A class and it has no problem with 250F's. For the money I've got into it I can't beat the amount of fun and use I've gotten out of it. Now if more people would smarten up and go this route maybe something like the British 2 stroke series could catch on over here. 8 grand for a 450 is doing nothing for the well being of the sport.

We are from the South eastern PA area and still make the pilgramage back to our beloved WAWA every year or so when visiting. My Mom sent us all T shirts and sweatshirts for Christmas this year.

Oh yeah picked the bike up for $1,500 he was asking $2,500 but I showed him the NADA printout and he said take it. I was stoked. Good to see all these other Ring dingers.

I have a pipe for that thing but I don't feel like taking my Millville 2 stroke invitational Trophy apart. Nice bike though.

Sweet! I have been looking for a mint 125 like that lately. Found a few in my area around the same price a few yrs newer! I rode a 125 for the first time this year since about 2003 and even though I am way bigger than I used to be, it was a hoot! So much lighter than my 450.

Cool, I grew up around Collegeville area. I worked at Montgomeryville Cylce center for a few years in high school and raced all the d-6 tracks up until about ten years ago when we headed West. I really miss being a member at Pagoda MX Club. Hurricane Hills is probably my favorite track in PA.
