Grizzle Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 I'm Graham from the Wirral, near Liverpool. After scooting around on my Aprilia SR 50 for a while to get my confidence up, I've taken the jump onto a 1993 TDR 125. The last time I rode a bike with gears was about 25 years ago (I'm now 35) and the thought of doing it was a bit daunting until I had a go on my friends DT 125 the other week. I wasn't as bad as I expected so I went on the hunt for a bargain bike to start with. Then, I managed to pick up the TDR for £450. It only needed a kick start pedal, new clutch/brake levers and a few panel screws/bolts replacing and a good few Monster Energy stickers removing as they looked tacky. Future plans are - Respray the swinging arm and fit a Mono Cross decal New red anodised bolts all round New kick start - Now fitted New levers - Now fitted New battery Different mirrors As it stands at the moment

Grizzle Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 will you not undo the tacky bit with red ionized screw, Go silver, ,,,, Already on order i'm afraid. I did toy with the idea of silver but went for the red option as it ties in with my helmet colours.

Noise Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 went for the red option as it ties in with my helmet colours. Id get to the Docs quick if your helmet is red.............could be a sign that your coming down with some thing lol. Welcome to the forum!
