Need help from the Vital-hive.
Bought an RM125 near Cleveland, OH earlier this season. Bike was mostly stock and recently had a frame-up powdercoat from the person that owned it before the guy I bought it from. Got a good deal but it needed a little TLC.

I do not know the history beyond that.

Recently, I figured out why I couldn't get the carb jetted properly. Crank seals were leaking and it may have been sucking in coolant from the head. Also found the L&R cylindrical power valve pieces were worn. Surprising it ran as well as it did.

Anyhow, When I got to working on it I noticed these fancy initials inscribed into the cylinder near the reeds.

Anyone recognize "RR". Bike runs really well .

Ron Rehmert from F&S Suzuki in Dayton. Maybe only thing I can think of.

Thanks guys. I was thinking Reynard but didn't know if they did engine service work. Was thinking maybe a practice bike or something. Did they have a race team ever?

His Dad did engines, not sure if he still does. Could have been one of Robbie's bikes, no telling.
