before "one piece", the nitrogen piston assembly was mounted on the frame with a high pressure hose connecting it to the shock. this slows the gas pressure's control over the oil compared to the piggy back design, which is standard today. in short, there was less chance of the oil aerating and Johnny getting shock fade that day. i'd say he needed it. he was flying!
I had a 85 and a 86 CR 125. (Not at the same time) Loved the 86. Years later I got my hands on a 85 CR 500. My All time favorite bike
Best 125 ever
Ive seen all 3 riders in 86, the smoked all riders in super cross.
Looks like honda land
Where is everyone?
Speachless
I want one but i weigh 200 pounds.
Get a 500r.😉
a 125 will still go fine with 200 lbs. as long as you're not racing it's fine and a lot of fun.
All that and you didn’t even ride it?
Good story!??????
"A one piece shock design?"......what is meant by that?
Piggy back resivior vs remote.🤪

Is she still alive?? The honda?
I just got one for $1400 about 2 months ago, already spent a weekend in jail for riding with no plates but it’s a monster 🙃😂😂🤘
