    Wow amazing. £1025 hate to think of how many thousands of man hours. Amazed at how many different skills that are needed to take on a project like this. Great work.

    I am completely envious. This 250 is the legend of the early 1980’s!! You could holeshot a moto against factory bikes no problem. Great job on the restoration, it came out magnificent!!!

    I’ve restored a few ‘80’s and 90’s bikes over the years and know the cost and time they take. To do this for around $1900 AUD is incredible. Certainly helps having a well set up workshop and great diy mechanical skills. Absolute credit to you mate!!

    Great work again, and at a bargain price for a change😂. You could sell that at a handsome profit but i know you won’t. Looking forward to the next RM project from this batch.

    It is therapeutic watching this bike come back to life,a great base to start with, also your skill set is very broad also a great education on how to go about saving one! I had a 83'125RM fond memories from 40yrs ago, Saving one bike at a time,well done!

    Used to go and watch these race against Yamahas, Hondas, KTMs and Kawasakis and the odd Maico at Hawkstone Park UK back in the 80's they were always a favourite, it's fantastic to see one so beautifully restored on a budget. What you did with those plastics was nothing short of a miracle. Can't wait to see what's next on the agenda

    Once again Rob an outstanding restoration !! Well done buddy ☺️. I’m looking forward to the 82 125’s and I’m hoping to follow and use your advice to restore mine at the same time but it won’t be as good as yours 😂.

    It's one thing to limit yourself with a £1000 investment but don't sell yourself short - your time has an incredible amount of value. That's a huge investment that has paid dividends. Beautiful job!

    Blasting with bearings still in place... Painting over bolts and nuts... I think you cut too many corners.

    What bearings got blasted and reused? To your 2nd point, Suzuki engines were sprayed once assembled to avoid assembly paint damage. Some restorers seem to forget mass production process but I can’t please everyone. 👍
