Hello all, I have a 1993 SR125. I discovered that the forks were bent by the previous owner crashing (I assume) and decided to replace them so I bought some off ebay. Unfortunatly I hadn't realised that the later 1999-onwards model has a different fixing between the top of the forks and the top yoke, plus the disc isoon the other side. Of course the forks I have bought (I realised now) are off the later model! DOH! I have taken a few sets of forks apart before, so I have considered taking the stanchions out of the later forks and seeing if I could fit them to the old bottoms. Before I rip them all apart and see what happens (or sell them again on ebay , can anyone tell me if this is possible? Also, the '99 forks seem about 1 or 2 inches longer than the 1993 ones - does anyone think this will be a problem or make any difference? Cheers!

Hello all. I've just bought a 1993 SR125 for my gf to learn on, unfortunatly I when I was looking at it I didn't notice the bend in the front wheel (doh!), not really a problem as I didn't pay too much for it, 'cept it needs to be fixed! My question is this: Does anyone know if the 1993 SR125 came with drum front brake or disc front brake as standard? My one is disc, but I wandered if it had been 'upgraded'.... Also, can anyone see why a front wheel of a later model wouldn't fit? Cheers...
