Ok I am just trying to bypass the wait until one turns up stage!!
Help! would any body have an ignition system that will go onto a GP125 that I am trying to put together.

See the ESE thread - KX80 stator and rotor, Ignitech ignition. Ebay for the stator/rotor, Ignitech for the Ignitech.
Follow their lead and you can't go wrong!
And the price on one of those puppies would be.........?
I told her indoors I was spending a few hundie on putting a bucket together, er I seem to have gone over budget once or twice already ( or three times, stopped counting )
So any of you guys with ignitechs got your cast off kx80 set ups?

I think he was implying that a std one would do. Sounds like a good time to onsell your old kit around the ESE shed.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
I just bought one on line but kx80 ( a 2000 model so hope thats ok ) not the flash one.
now I need the left hand engine case, the one that covers the ignition side of the engine. Not a very technical description but you get the drift.
Sounds like a good start, post a picture.
They can be a bit hard to find as they crackup around the clutch release mechanisim, we have repaired one or two of ours that have cracked with a 1mm metal plate and lots of Araldite.
When you get one make sure the outer cover and all the clutch release bits including the brass ferral that fits in the lever and around the clutch cable (as seen in the picture) come with it, if you can.

but here are the pictures taken from the ad.

It should be good, the crank keyway and original ignition timing marks all line up,(yellow line left hand pic). So its real easy to get started and the trigger fits easily into the case as well.
From memory the only things required is to turn down the outside diameter of the stator plate about 1 or 2mm and turn out some of the inside so it fits over the main brg oil seal.

The bad thing is:- Unlike the other KX80 ignition that uses the trangular stator and has a fixed firing point, your ignition has some inbuilt retard and its unlikely that the curve that suites the KX80 will be perfect for the GP.
But the good thing is, it will run OK and later the ignition trigger can be used with an Ignitech programable and the HV coils re-wound to charge the Ignis battery.
So all in all it looks a good start.

you need this if you want 18+hp (and to read the E.S.E thread)
