10 years ago I started to get into bikes with a bit of nostalgic influence Back in the day I always wanted an RD125lc but couldnt afford one so ended up with a Honda XL125 instead I just discovered ebay and saw RDs on there and thought why not! got these 2 as a project  Had a tinker and while on ebay again I saw another one for parts  Before I knew it I had a bit of a collection  By this time I had discovered the forums and I was having a great time buying and selling bits and bikes I ended up with 3 crackers  Took my CBT and rattled around on one for a while  # Then all of a sudden I just got fed up with them, sold the lot and forgot about bikes. 4x4s took all my money from then |

I even had a swiss import 1GU for a while  Probably my fav colour scheme  This was a freebie !  I wish I had completed my Rat version  Thankfully I had an understanding mrs  I've probably got many more pics on a hard drive somewhere, but thats all I have on photobucket |

Hi Paul
I met you when I joined the 125 forum way back then, you were like a 125LC magnet!
I bought the 'YGT' MK1 rat bike off you. I had the frame restored and started fitting loads of NOS parts with a low mile donor engine from a Swiss 46W. It's now in storage in a vacuum sack until I get sorted out.
I also sold you the full faired MK3 and you did me the 'JVL' MK2 frame which is still awaiting resto.
I'll post a pic of my latest MK3 in forum.
Cheers
Michael

Cheers Michael We keep crossing paths lately, decided to got for a 350 rather than go back to 125s, but maybe one day I'll have a candy blue mk1 |

yes I did I joined the 125 one as love them and have so many but I got band about 4 times in a week for offering some second hand parts that I have loads of im my shed and I don't sell so they just lay about so I offed them real cheep to help out the members and to get rid of stuff I don't need . Then I made a joke that a mod didn't like and I got band again. so I just stopped going on I wasn't aware it had finished as I deleted the link to it and never went back.
