    Darn I love those old air cooled 2 stroke engines. They sound mean. I've got a 1980 KDX 175 bore to 200cc. I haven't started it in about 5 years. Lol

    I used to put Cox airplane fuel 3oz and 3oz of Bell Ray 2strok oil to one gallon of gas in my RM 125 's
    77,78,78,80
    They all had that methane gas jet fuel smell 😃

    I raced " mini bikes " (Q50/XL70/ YZ80/RM80) and had to wait until l was 14 to race in the adults class, on this bike RM125B. Ended up winning the 125, 250 and Open Class on this bike. Sure most all the other riders were blind or quadriplegics, but l wasn't going to let those entitled punks push me around ! Funny thinking about life back then, l think as 14 year olds we would equate to what, a 27 year old now ?!

    I had a 76 model RM 125 the forks did not hang below the front axle and there were no gas reservoirs on the frame from the rear shocks other than that they looked the same, how did you keep it so freaking clean? mine was worn slam out when i finally sold it.
