  • 1st round of the pre 85s at smx combined with fmx (female motocross) 2nd moto.
    Bike was going OK until the end, where the stator failed.

    For young 60 year old, that brought back a few memories, I just loved that bike 👍.

    That era of RM were rockets. I had several late ‘70s early ‘80s RMs. They screamed.

    I have a restored 1980 RM125 and also I am rebuilding a 1983 RM125. I told my wife that when you are messing around with old motocross bikes it is good to have a spare....

      Just seen your 1980 looks awesome mate :) Good luck with the 83 hope it turns out well ! Definitely wise to have a spare ... or two .. or three 🤣

    One of the All Time best 125 motocross bikes. It dominated the 125 class for two years

      Awesome stuff never forget your first race :) 🏁 I agree they're definitely a cool looking machine and full floater system is definitely a winner 😀

      Wow. Me too. First MX race for me was in 84 on a 82 RM 125 at A place called Bithlo outside of Orlando. It seized over a jump in first moto. Luckily I was so slow it wasn't disastrous. I was able to free it up before 2nd moto. It survived 2nd moto. Ofcourse after that I bored it and put a new piston in it. Loved that bike. Handled good and rear suspension was very good for the times.

    Great video and I'm hoping the absolute bullshit involved to get this far looks as nice as what I've just seen ...

      Fair play mate ! Have you built an 82 ? Oem or modd ?? They're a pain but, I'm sure she'll be fine and worth it in the end👍🤟 🍻

    Parts of that track was in rough shape. Nice riding and always good to hear a 2 stroke at full song.
