Lot's of great choices, but the machine that most moved me as an impressionable 13yo was this one.

I drool over yours every time I see a picture of it. By the way, I usually don't quote pictures, but in this case, I think it's ok!!

Great looking bike man.
Had these bikes been introduced a few months earlier, the starting gates around the country would not have been dominated by the CR125 Honda. Great running 125's.

I bought this bike from my Atl husky dealer minus the suspension, $4200 out the door with the brand new 125 top end . This thing is awesome. I also have a KTM 150 and now that one just sits the husky is so brapping crisp . I need to order new plastics to save the custom dirtbike race ones. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.....

Have to agree; always had a soft spot for the 86-87 CR 125's.

I always had a soft spot for the Splitfire bikes as well. Very cool bikes with the green frames.

This thread makes me want to pick up a YZ125 real bad. I miss riding a sub 200 pound bike.

I'm torn between those Pro Circuit Kawi's and the Suzukis.

I do like how timeless the RM and YZs are though. The CRs and KXs from the same era seem more dated to me.

Well spotted. The time before this I had to take out the front wheels to fit in the van and I'd left it dangling for the week. haha. I borrow my friends tour van every time I take her out for a spin! Bit of a squeeze getting two bikes in here though.

This is why people wanted dirt bikes back then.
35 years and as trick as anything today.
That bike oozes cool.

Congrats on owning a fine example of what a dirt bike should be.
