1980 Suzuki GP125 Bucket Racer

Bike was a commuter and was stripped for bucket racing in 2010.

Comes with a new set of sticky bridgestones, to fit the stock wheels.

I bought it a few months ago and haven't ridden it. Here is a video of the previous owner riding it:

It arrived to me with no carb so I bought one but have never fitted it.

Brakes could use attention by the sounds and feel.

Comes with sweet paddock stand as pictured.



Viewing welcome.



I need the money, no swaps. Dollar res, good luck!

Mate, you gotta get it going first... Is there a piston in there? I heard he sold it to some Arab for some anti-chaff cream :/
