so this one pops up on ebay. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/yamaha-rd-125-lc-mk-1-/221012720829?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3375627cbdSo what do you guys think is the max a 125lc should go for,we all know that you never get back what you spend on them,also when people start to restore bikes im sure you guys have and will get bikes to a top standard without buying brand new parts,and as long as the second hand parts are not damaged the results are outstanding. Thoughts   Btw i do think the bike looks great |

great looking bike but its got to be way over priced.
i dont care what you spend rebuilding something, the original bike still only has a certain value and surely that value cant be elevated just by throwing money into new parts.

Been on e-bay on/off most of the day and saw this one pop up. It's a very nice looking bike,but £3500? . . . . . had a feeling it may become a discussion point on here. We were looking for one recently for my son but ended up buying a stunning all original RG125F for £900. |

there are a few original bikes for sale around the grand mark so this one cant be worth any more than £1500 surely.

from their feedback and user name im guessing they are a garage of some sort. probly made the prices from their own service charges.
and yes the front brake routing is shocking.

I have a mint mk1 that stands me in at 2 k if someone wanted it bad I would sell for 2.5k but not a penny less as I still love the bike and don't need to sell.
