    ok i'll try the thumb gauge. it turns over really smooth with the kick start and even when in gear by rotating the rear wheel but i guess maybe only heat and a few thousand revs will tell if the crank is good without pulling it down.

    it's likely that if i does need a rebuild it will become a parts bike so hopefully it's a pass.

    We had one of these sitting under the workshop where I worked. I started dragging it out a few times, but must of been distracted. I worked there 17yrs and nobody did anything with it. For all I know it is still there, rusting in peace.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Classis Motorcycle Mechanics have started a set of articles about rebuilding a stuffed T125 from the April issue (the one with the RG250 on the cover)

    Steve Cooper, I actually had an email conversation with him a couple of years back about conrod kits (I used TKJR DS 80 kits which are largely the same).
