Cr 125 build #2 "practice bike"

Looks like a nice clean bike. Ive always loved that generation of CR, regret selling mine but I've got a steely now.

Nice work on getting that 125 cleaned up. Where are you getting your parts from?

And I'm riding out at arlanda at the moment, just taking a break between motos, you will have to let me know when you are up in Stockholm with your bike.

Thanks, it's decent at least!

I'm working every week in stockholm, bromma. But we don't have a good place at this worksite to store my bike.. working in bromma and living in the city centre, don't have the nerves to store it in the van..

I'll let you know as soon I get an possibility to get the bike with me

I am a parts-dealer myself, so I get it from myself, have to pay for it private tough My distributors are Pse-parts and c.c-products, and a tire supplier from Gothenburg.

More "special" parts I am ordering from partzilla and eBay!

Lol this is hilarious. I remember flying into Arlanda last summer on the landing to the right and thinking to myself, "Wait holy shit is that an MX track right next to the runway?"


Turns out it is haha. Looks like a fun little track too!

If you want you can leave your bike in my secure storage area, with my 3 bikes. I could also bring the bike to and from the track, no problem. Then you can take the bike home on the weekend.
When I'm riding a lot I leave my bike in my van, locked up in my garage, sometimes for weeks at a time, my van is alarmed as well.
I never stressed about my bike getting stolen, but I would be devastated if my suspension got stolen

Pm me when when you are ready to bring the bike up and I will give you my number.
And you can get a ride on my rmz, to see what you think.

I would love to try that suspension out! And Suzuki I feel comfortable on

Got home from a work week today..

Found out that gearbox bearings need to be changed also, hoping I can get some tomorrow..












And crap
Tought I got everything in order, this one fell out.. i think it is a collar on the shift drum.. well, 10 years since I took a 2stroke apart, guess I'll look at some blueprints tonigt

Looks like the collar for the shifter shaft that would rest against the case on the internal side.

It's my favourite track in the stockholm aera. They prep it well too.

Guess that engine had some hours on it since the last rebuild, that poor thing probably screamed for 15minutes before she finally decided to let go!

Looking forward to see how this bike will turn out. You're doing the right thing by stacking up on 125's. One can never have enough of those bikes...

Yeah i bought it from a girl that had it for years, not ridden alot, but not serviced alot either..

Talked to a friend today that had been at the same track this Wednesday, it was still other people talking in the pits about how I held this thing WFO for those 15 min

But it was a diamond in the rough for 1200$

Thanks, hopefully I keep this "as is"


Badd: that is nicely prepped!

Lets see if we can't get this girl fired up before the weekend

Still waiting on the 2 gearbox bearings, hopefully I'll get them on Friday. I need to ride!

Installed the exhaust port and studs, measured piston gap and ring gap, spot on!

Also installed the crank bearings, waiting for the cases to cool and then I'll install seals and get the crank in the right side case.

Then I need my bearings..

This makes me want to take my 125 out! Arlanda is a lot of fun if it rains the day/night before, it turns into a dust cloud when it's dried up.

This is as far as I get now, shipper says that the last bearings gets here on friday, I hope..

Up and running!

Sounds better from the engine, so hopefully it will last more than 8hrs total

May go back to the track I broke it on this saturday, maybe I get 20 min this time?

Was the "mystery collar" this one that goes onto the pawl assembly?





I recently rebuilt the entire engine/transmission on my 05' CR125. I fabricated a custom tool so when the case halves were pressed onto the crank, only the inner crank bearing races took the pressure. I am OCD. You do nice work!

Yeah it was that collar!

Went to Tibro yesterday, bike held up 1 hr at least

Going back to the soft sand track I broke it on right now
I adjusted the needle 1 clip richer before I fired it up after the rebuild, sparkplug looks good so I may keep it like this, although I feel maybe it's a little too rich.

Have some rattling from the clutch (I listen too much to these things ) so I have got a Hinson outer basket on order and new roller bearing for it
