I was looking at Craigslist for a 125 Evo bike for my better half and I stumbled across this little gem. It's 1983 RM125 with what looks like about 10-20 hours on it. It's 100% original down to the grips and it looks like the tires have never been off the rims. The bike has never even seen a tool on the chain adjuster bolts. The list of things I need to fix/replace is pretty short. The tires are dry rotted. The front fender is faded. The silencer is bent and rear fender dinged from a loop out. The bars are slightly tweaked but I think they can be straightened. Apparently the loop out was the reason the bike spent 27 years in storage. A deep cleaning with a suspension/chassis service and Carrie has herself a new 125 Evo racer for the fall. She's stoked.
