Hello again, does anyone have a silencer for a 1981 CR125 for sale? I am so close to being finished with this bike, but I do not have the silencer. OEM or aftermarket is fine. Thanks!!

You can buy a DG universal silencer from any dealer that sells from Parts Unlimited. They have 3 sizes, not sure which you need, for example 1" id is part# d23-91000 & retails for $89.95.

Just a thought but I've been very unhappy with those dg silencers. I have used pro circuit 304s on a lot of vintage 125s. It's very easy to relocate a mount or make some small mods to make them work. Most of the bikes before low boy pipes came out run very straight from pipe to silencer so it's a fairly easy job.

This is a 93-95 rm 125 silencer I used on my KTM.

This will probably sound stupid, but how do I figure out what one might fit my bike? Seems like all the pics are stock photos and not what the actual silencer looks like. Thanks for the help! Very much appreciated.

And yeah, mine is pretty much a straight shot off the pipe.

This is not the easiest way to go....I just wanted to mention that it is possible. I was lucky because I had a lot of spare parts laying around from various old 90s bikes I had over the years. If you wanted to, I would look at lots of pictures. Look at late 80s 125 silencer pictures. 93-95 RM 125's worked for me, 88-89 KX 125's look like a good option. I would use vital to have other members take measurements. Everyone in the vintage forum here has always been very helpful
