Picked up a 1985 RM125 off of cl and have been enjoying myself. The bike was neglected, tattered and torn. I always had a good time on bikes like these when i was younger and it has been a blast to get a rat bike into a far better state of being. A lot of good times in the garage and testing things out at my friends property. My son is 7 years old and is by my side often asking all sorts of questions... We are having fun and my wife has not left me ...
Pictures to come, very independently produced... This site looks really cool and the resto jobs are awesome. So much work !

Finally got a chance to upload some more pics. Its getting somewhat presentable and seems to be reliable. Rode a few times with some friends and it did not break down. . . : ) Liking the VMX thing . . .
Thanks for the responses and best wishes
I recently decided I needed a lightweight off roader & bought a '01 XC 200 Gas Gas and went thru it about like you've done with this bike. It won't win any shows, but it's a lot of fun to ride.
Keep us posted on any more upgrades and thanks for posting.

Unless you need an exhaust I feel your stock pipe is the way to go. DG pipes are good when you need a replacement.
Those RMs looked just like the factory bikes of the time. And the last of the real Full Floater. Looking close at the pics,your 125 doesn't have a ton of time on it.
