Scott, I remember going to a major Sydney Suzuki dealer back in 1975 and seeing a row of RH74s for sale for hundreds of dollars less than the new RM. The...
I always thought the RH designation was denoting of Suzuki factory works bikes, like the Yamaha OW's and the Honda RC's. I remember seeing Gaston Rahier on a...
I remember as a kid building plastic models of a TM400 and of Roger DeCoster's '73-'74 works bike (not to mention Malcolm Smith's Husqvarna). I believe these...
A buddy of mine gave me some old water decals i think of first year RMs,I have them stashed some where,like brand new,I freaked when he said do you want...
Mark, I really like the white fenders. I've been using them on all my TMs since I got back into racing a few years back. The TM125 I had as a kid had...
Vinnie, Those TM models show up on ebay quite often. I just looked to see if there were any right now, but found nothing. Keep looking, you'll find one. I...
Apparently there were works bikes and WORKS bikes. While I am no expert on Suzukis, it seems that the RH and RN models that were on limited release were very...
Mark, If you look at the famous poster of Joel Roberts RH72, it seems that the bike has more in common with the RM's that came out in 76' than any TM ever did....
Scott.Dave Tanner recently sold a Cheney framed TM400 that he originally got off Bob Neilson.It is a little known fact that the RH72 frame is an almost perfect...
I seem to remember seeing a Cheney frame for sale somewhere. Maybe it was another guy, not Bob. Bob used to have a Boyd Stellings framed TM400. It had a...
Ya know, I really miss the days of full-blown factory works bikes. I wish one of the big governing bodies like AMA or FIM would institute a "no holds barred"...
Thanks Scott, Yeah, please do post that pic! I don't think I have ever seen that one. When I was about 14 years old I broke the crud out of my leg and was...
I joined this group cause I've had a lot of bikes but I'm either crazy or something.. I had a friend that had.. at least i THINK it was a mid 70's to mid 80's...
It was most likely a DS series. They had orange tanks and plastic in '78, '79 and '80. DS80, DS100, DS125, DS185 and even a 250 in '80 only. ... crazy ... mid ...
I wanted to add, that if anyone is looking, the shop I work for has a nice '80 model DS185 for $650.00. Also, a '79 RM250 for $1650.00. 816- 380-5331 is the #,...
Thanks Robert!! That must be it.. I'm looking for a picture on the web and can't find any.. Also where are you located? I'm in NW PA. I have a street bike for...
I'm in Archie, Missouri, south of the Kansas City area about a half hour. Any other MOVMX participants lurking out there? ... web ... have ... I'll be...
Anyone know the difference between the '72 & '73 YZ 125 color schemes ? I know one has a red stripe with a silver background , and the other has a green stripe...
there was no color scheme for the yz125 in 72 or 73, because the 1st year was 1974. I am suspecting you are looking at or have bought the Missouri YZ125 ???...
Sorry . I meant the year model of the mx 125s . I knew that the '72/'73 250s had either a green or a red stripe with a silver background , but , I knew they...
that would be a better question for a yamaha group. Silver is all I know. I think the 73 had a red stripe. Motocross suzukis were yellow ... the '72/'73 250s...
I had what the previous owner described as a 1973 YZ125, though I later determined it to be most likely a '74, and it was white with a red stripe on the tank....
Suzukis DS series playbikes. They were basically the TS series bikes, stripped of all the street stuff, with a small enduro-style headlight and tail light....
This is pretty simple. 1974 YZ 125 twin shock bike in the USA was sold with the silver paint and red and black stripes. The 1975 YZ 125 twin shock was yellow...
I am a MOVMX'r and have been riding Hodaka's there since 1999. I have two TM 125's, two Maico's a couple Honda's and lately have been gathering YZ100's and...
