    One of the best, most completion focused restoration channels on TH-cam. You deserve 100k subs mate!

    Rob you are an absolute restoration legend !!!
    You take so much care and pride in restoring these classic bikes you make me beam with joy everytime I watch one of your video’s and your an inspiration to us all 😊
    It’s an absolute pleasure finding these bikes for you to bring back to life !!
    I will join you in restoring my own 1982 RM125 by following your tips altho mine will never be anywhere as good as yours lol.
    Thanks again for the plug as well, I’m slowly getting thru these 80’s tanks and panels (I have a couple of rm250 tanks and a lot of 125 81/83 tanks if you get stuck !! )
    Keep up the amazing work mate loving it !!

    Wow,i used to have the one, i brought it new in 82. It was a total rocket and i got many holeshots and wins on it over the 2 years i had it. Its nice to see this one as i can remember all the nuts and bolts i used to remove to do maintenance just like yesterday. .
    Ajax bath cleaner for the plastics then polish and buff. 😊😊

    Nice job on the plastics and I feel your pain. I spent over 30hrs on my IT tank, alone. Upside, after restoring all the plastics, I could’ve committed many crime with lack of any fingerprints

    Another amazing job, you are a amazing at what you do. I have a 79 CR125 that I want to restore, I've had it about 7 years but keep putting it off. I feel your pain at trying to get parts! I tried for years to get an original rear mudguard but to no avail, so I had to buy a after market one. Anyway your videos are giving me a lot of motivation, Thank you.

    Great watching your restoration of bikes close t my heart. In 81 I bought a new RM125 so I can’t wait till you move on to those.
    Hint for cleaning rubber. Have you tried Ballistol? It works wonders on faded rubber parts.

    Hi again mate, sorry for flooding you with comments only getting original fork gaiters has been a bloody nightmare. The off the shelf stuff looks rubbish.

    what about a quick ghost coat and then you could do it wet and see the scratches

      I’ve done it both ways. So far this way works on yellow. Who knows!
