Hi guys,

I've just got around to creating an album to post some photos of my re-build of the 125M. Feel free to take a look, and I'll keep it updated until the bike is complete.

Best
James



Here's the album link:

That just gives a direct to photobucket, the only one that can access your album on Photobucket is you.

You need to paste the link from each photo on this site for us to see them.

Hi there,

The link has been corrected, so please use the one in the original post and it will now go direct to the album.

Looks fairly complete yet neglected and has spent some time out in the weather.

Yes, on first look it appeared mostly complete, however...

Two tyres were shot and had become fused to the rims requiring seperation by hydraulic engine lifter, wiring was pulled apart and connectors missing, front axle seized, front guard broken, no key for start switch, no seat or pan, all bolts were rusted out, light switch was inoperable, CDI unit needed re-wiring, battery dead, rear fender flopping around as all mounts had rusted away and no rubbers, plus a hundred other things that have made the rebuild more than 5 weeks work so far, every day.

BUT...the light is at the end of the tunnel, and it should all be finished in the next 10 days or so.

Top work mate it will all be worth it when you have a nice trike at the end and you can appreciate the hours put in to preserving it back to its former glory, Keep it up. Cheers Stu. Cool

Thanks. I figure if I spend the time now and restore it to near new, it should give it another 20 years of life, so my son can enjoy it in the years to come.

It's also such a great show piece to have one of these bikes in the garage.

Should have some shots of the latest progress and engine re-build in the next day or so.

Best
