I have a 1987 Honda rs125 I was planning on racing this year, but I'm not sure because of funds with the new house. Has anyone tried using any parts of a rs125 on to a zb50 build? The forks look like they may fit along with some other pieces.
Thanks-

the bad part is that while still fun, you'd stand little chance of being competetive on such an old 125, unless you're some sort of phenom!!! (especially at brainerd!!)

Yeah does that have 18" wire wheels? I can't remember when they switched over to the forged/cast rims.

i think their 17"... but spoked fo' sho' unless someone did a wheel swap. i think 90 or 91 was the aluminum wheeled bikes.

Give me a shout on the wheels, forks and brakes. Thanks. Toby.
