Bought a used 2003 CR125
I have no idea how many hours
Person I got it from just said very low use by him
And person he got it from said the same to Him
Anyway to tell if certain parts are original ?
I think the front tire is it's a Dunlop K490
Front and rear Brake pads both look brand new condition
The clutch pull is so easy I could do it with my pinky which I love , only parts I see that Arent stock
Is Pipe FMF Rev , handle bars protaper CR Hi
, new air filter and newer rear tire .
Wondering about chain sliders or anything else that might be obvious to look for ?

What does the right side case look like?
A hard ridden bike will have the paint worn off the mounts or have slop in the pin. the teeth will be nubs too. Just a thought.
Front tire
The Shop
Good call on looking at that
I didnt think about the pegs.
Would I need to change front tire just because it's old?
And with some extra goodies
Seller also Gave me a big plastic Tub of
Old chainlube pre mix etc
And a Brand new in the Box pair of 100% goggles
And a Bike Hauler that you put in your trailer hitch
If u dont Have a Truck
I was Happy with the Deal
Was listed a little bit Higher though
Pull the seat and have a look in the air box...also look for wear on the sub frame...lots of hours equals many filter changes and usually oil and grease all over the air box, and the sub frame will be work when the seat touches it.
Pit Row
Wouldn't hurt to throw a new piston in though, even if just for reassurance.
Apart from that - footpeg mounts (not the pegs themselves as they're easy to replace). Also kickstart wear from slamming into the pegs.
