Restored 1977 Suzuki RM 125

Auction sold at $2,800

GDA AUCTION SUMMARY

Sold on Bill of Sale
The RM mirrored the works models ridden by world champions Roger DeCoster, Joel Rober and Gaston Raheir
Suzuki was one of the original manufacturers, back in 1965, that decided to build the best motocross bike and create motocross in the US.
This started a legacy in World Championships that stunned the European makers of the day.
During the mid 70’s it was clear that Suzuki’s racing and production departments were working together and the RM bikes were the one’s to have.
Suzuki knocked off Honda from the top of the dirt bike heap with the RM 125B
RM stood for “racing machine” from the factory
The RM 125 used a case-reed valve intake, an air cooled single cylinder two-stroke engine with 26.5 hp at 10,750 rpm’s
Dry weight at only 194 lbs
1 down and 5 up 6 speed transmission
Beautifully restored to exact specifications as it rolled off the showroom, this bike came with the upgraded air adjustable extra travel forks which provided a 3” additional travel and the magnesium crank for less weight, both very rare.
During the restoration the owner decided to install the Mikuni VM-32 bore race carburetor that was one of the race options back in the day.
Every part on the bike was either new old stock or original Suzuki parts from Vintage Suzuki.
The motor was completely taken apart, rebuilt, media blasted and then powder coated.
Mostly been stored in a private collection with minimal miles since restoration.
