Posted October 24, 201410 yr Hi all, just saying hi and introduce myself. After many years of car driving I have decided to finally give in to my inner teenager and get a bike. Bought myself an sr125 in quite a poor state. Will post pic. And have decided to restore it to former glory. It is now down to just frame, forks and loom with the engine stripped on the bench. So over the coming months, (no sense in rushing it over the winter) I would like to share the project with my new friends on here and share my experience. Glad of any tips or hints. ok here what ive done so far. Stripped bike to fame, engine out and stripped, wheels, seat, mud guards, lights, tank all off. Caseings all shined up. parts being ordered this week. Piston and rings, full gasket set, new fairings, front mud guard, head bolts, new starter motor, sump plug. There maybe more but forgotten at the moment. thats all for now, ill keep you all updated and pics too. Ride safe pignapper
