125 LC wheel with these wierd (Homemade?) solid steel inserts at the sprocket mount. I assume there shall be rubber mounts instead? What else should there be on the spocket side? There's a groove on the hub edge to the left of the sprocket, (not visible on pic though) it looks like there shall be a retainer ring or something, but it's missing. I think this wheel feels pretty tatty (not to mention the paint, or lack of it lol, but that's another story) but perhaps you can save it?  Would be ace to get some pics of a GOOD bone stock rear wheel, at least the drive side, so I can see how it shall look. A fishy would be of great value too ufcourse. |

I used to have but I lost the card thingy in it, then I lost the battery charger so all I could see was darkness and all I could hear was a dreadful silence, (OMG I JUST REALISED YOU CAN HEAR SILENCE!! Think about it, isn't it wierd how you can hear and focus on something that doesn't exist??) and then I lost all my friends too and I havn't got laid for years, so I have no major use of another phone. ;D Anyway, you don't have the pics on the computer I assume? |

Allright I guess we'll be looking for another wheel then, sooner or later anyway. Suppose I could use the wheel until I find a better one though, but without any sprocket damping I'm gonna have to be careful with the throttle lol.. But then again, if a 40-ish hp Cr125 with NO damping in the driveline can take years of very hard abuse on the street, then I guess a little RD 125 with it's 20 hp and clutch damping (plus a gazillion times smoother shifts) can take it too. ;D But back to the wheel condition, the drum is also quite worn by the look of it, I noticed it earlier today.  The brake arm seems to be sitting in a reasonable angle when you pull the brake though so not sure if it is as bad as it looks. Good news though, front rim is much better. It has some marks from tire changes though, (Goddamn hillbillys ruining a perfectly good rim edge with hand tools and brutal violence..) but I think it'll polish up allright. |

Okey so what about this then - FZR 1000 front rim (17 x 3,5 inch) used as a rear rim, along with a later type TZR 125 front end with the 3 spoke rim. Will it work OK you think? On these pics I have a GSX 1000 front end on, but that has to go, it's just not gonna work on a RD 125, not even a 350. Just look at the length of the thing even if the yokes are dropped like 50mm!  So, the plan is to get hold of a TZR 125 front end, this would work well and the wheel would look the same (or at least very close) as the FZR wheel.  Anyway, here's some pics for ya'll..   Reeeeeally high front...    Chain alignment. Gonna be tight but will work.  Mockup..   |
