Many hours

Appreciate your comment . Thinking back I remember the countless hrs spent hand polishing all the aluminum . So much better than chrome . I entered it in 3 shows and won them all for it's class . I stroked it to 1200 cc (72 cubes ) with a 42 mm Mikuni . You better believe this bike is fast and so easy to throw around .
 
I have a 1975 Yamaha RD125, 2100 actual miles, very good running condition, one small dent in the tank and rt front turn signal missing, that I picked up at an auction last winter. It had been shedded it's whole life, seat and paint is all good. I would like to get another project to clean up and get running this year, but must sell this first. If you know of a collector who might be interested, let me know. Thanks

Thank you for the great pics. VERY nice bike. Love those two strokes.
 
Here is my baby, Pearl, she is a venerable old gal (not too old), 1990 FLSTC with the C stuff removed and a cam, carb, pipe combo put on at about 20,000k. She now has about 55,000k and runs well, but daddy is thinking about an Electraglide...

So far I've had to:
-rebuild the tranny (errant piece of shifter pawl spring entered gears and stripped a bunch of teeth in the middle of a first gear burnout); and
-replace the alternator rotor (the factory one was loose on the splines and so I had a buddy machine a custom hub which I hand fitted to the splines cuz we didn't have the exact specs on them, then when the set screws used to join the hub to old rotor broke apart a new extra thick rotor after market one was put in).
