Title: Sighted in Seal Beach - RD125
Post by: SoCal250 on April 27, 2024, 10:52:18 PM
I was out on a 30-mile ride on the RD125 today and rode by this parked in downtown Seal Beach. It was a little bizarre, sitting on a RD125 and taking a photo of another RD125.  :jaw:  You certainly don't see many of these around so I thought it must belong to a guy I know who said he traded for one recently that was given to a friend as part of an estate sale. I messaged him and sure enough he said it's his. It only has about 2500 miles, but wasn't running when he got it. He just got it running again.

It doesn't look so hot now but I'm guessing that it will be immaculate sometime soon. He has a RD200B with chromed Higgspeed chambers that is amazing. As for the front wheel looking so much better than the rest of the bike...he said when he got it, it had the wrong front rim on it, so he built a new one with re-zinced spokes.

That is so cool, I personally have not seen a two stroke on the streets in a long while :thumbs:

I was a little bizarre, not only because you don't see 2-strokes around much, but because I was sitting on a '75 RD125 and taking a pic of another '75 RD125. :hifive:
