Hey all just joined.
Currently waiting on delivery of a Honda Cr125r 1984 model that i plan to rebuild engine on (cosmetically its in very good condition for the age)

been into bikes for about 10 years now.

look forward to this build as always been into the older crossers had a 1984 rm 125 and a 1988 yz 125 about 4 years back but ended up selling them to buy a off road quad at time. wish i still had them now as the prices have shot up lol below is pictures of bike im waiting on

haha yeah nearly all the forums im on there is hardly anyone in scotland lol. its a nightmare though trying to find parts over here for these although this cr seems to be the first one im able to find all the engine bits for. had 2 kx 125 1990s a few months back but the parts were ridiculously priced (example being a crank was £400) but the cr seems to be pretty decent priced :)

IMHO, DG makes, hands down, the best looking/sounding pipes for vintage dirties.
My brother's 86 kdx 200 has both ends from DG. Best money I ever spent on his bike!

sweet :) was going to keep it original but the exhaust seems to be the only thing stopping me but iv read though the original exhaust wasn't all that great in regards to the extra bit at the engine port. i don't plan to ride the cr for a long time was mainly a project for me to fix up and sell again but im going to be starting driving lessons as i wanna get myself a van and do motorcycle delivery throughout the uk so once the cr is finished i may run it for a little bit until i pass test and sell it then as knowing me il end up spending cash on something else lol (money off bike i plan to use for a van) not much places around me within a 25 mile radius to go with bikes so its not really all that worth while spending money on kit etc i tend to use my local bing just for to get out which seems to go down well with people as long as you transport bikes on trailers or in vans which i do anyway, just becoming less and less places to use them now.
