I used to sit and dream as a kid to own one of these watching the older boys run up and down the trails near our neighborhood. I remember the sound distinctly, this and the XR 75

@zonacrs Год назад

Had a 1975, miss that little beast to this day at 61 years old.

@stevenmccown4650 Год назад

I made the fastest cr 125 m1 Elsinore 74 in the world by putting a Hodka Wombat Combat reed valve into the back of the Head & I put 4 holes on the side of the piston facing the reed Valve, also I had the racing dome piston skirts cut to match the stage 3 porting , I put a up proto pipe on it that turned down by the kick starter , I had a modified 6 speed transmission. I put a DG Long Fin engine head top on it . I had to have the carb jet drilled out very big because it was suffering for fuel at 1st . When I took it to an airport run way that was not being used anymore to jet it ' the back spocket blew up because the 4 bolts broke right off the wheel it was so different & powerful. Me & my DAD just looked at each other & said YIKES !

@John-iv6bd 6 месяцев назад

You know how you make one of the fastest bikes in the world! You go to the airport and get avgas i ran that in my CR 500 no other 500 couldnt ever keep up too me not even close! But its very hard on the top end my sparkplugs were always white i mean white and it never smoked i ran it at 20:1! I had The fastest 500 i have ever seen in my life to this day

@billross7078 5 месяцев назад

You installed a reed valve into the back of the head? The reeds attach to the cylinder - NOT the head

@d.r.penkert1429 Год назад

My buddy had a JB racer! They had a blue jay chasing a bee on the tank, this resto must look like team bikes,the one's a privateer could buy had the bird and bee! Never have seen one like my Buddy's after all these years.

@paulgrogan8032 Год назад

So you know it's a fresh Elsie when your on the pipe through all gears and not a single puff of the blue stuff👏👍

@amanteapasionado6836 Год назад

Them old 70s and 80s 2 strokes sound the meanest

@sonnyseabury4051 Год назад

They have many highly reputable and well known and respected connections all over the United States, to get the best of the best, when it comes to motorcycles. I truly love my 2 bikes I bought from them....A vintage 1985 350cc Twin Cylinder Yamaha 2 stroke Kenny Roberts Edition Streetbike, and a 2022 GasGas MC 250 2 stroke MX Dirtbike. They are the most honest people around, and it was a pleasure and privilege to do business with them. Take Care, Brother.

@jordanblair5410 Год назад

It definitely was for me ('73 XR to '75 CR) -- both bikes were super fun and many incredible memories were made.

@stephenmiller5023 Год назад

Very nice Example you have there Ken 👍. Out here in So Cal Back in the early ‘70’ s up at Carlsbad Raceway I used to go every year for the annual Moto-cross Grand-Prix . We would see ALL kinds of one -off works bikes show up,along with tons of privateer stuff from smaller shops around the country & world . I raced on that track in 1981 on my brand new Yamaha water cooled 125 and man was that a blast . Hearing you ripping through the gears on this blue Honda sure brought back memories of my 125 doing the same thing . I’m 62-1/2 now & my current off road Steed is my trusty ‘99 WR-400 F . I may have grown older , but like you I refuse to grow UP …😏😉👍. C-ya , & Thanks for posting.

@gorn9161 Год назад

6 Speed? That's unusual. The bike is magnificent. Awesome Blue💨

@randyterwilliger7457 Год назад

Six speed was a nice advantage over other brands in its class and were always standard on the CR 125 . I had a 73 the second one in New England area for about two weeks and then the were EVERYWHERE. lol

@shawnsatterlee6035 Год назад

Idk about older ones, but I had a 79 CR125 Elsinore and it was a 6speed. Which actually turned into a 5speed when I was climbing a hill and locked up. Split the cases and had a gear broke, removed it, found a old bearing laying around that was basically same with, cut the outer race off, removed the ball bearings and used inner race as a spacer. So it lost 1st gear, was just 2nd through 6th after and didn't hurt it one bit. That old 79 was a straight up rocket! Was also a frame breaker!

@floridarossi9111 Год назад

Awesome!!!!!

Hi Ken it's been awhile and what a stunning bike but the thing people don't know is how fast they really go and boy does that one go in the right hands could easily keep with a modern 125.

@paulwilliams8588 Год назад

@W1RMD Год назад

Great looking bike! Jeff Ward........There's a name I haven't heard in over 30 years! You need to at least put a small mound of dirt and make a jump in that park of yours! Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!

@John-iv6bd 6 месяцев назад

I had a couple of those bike i blew the cluch right out the side casing! But what crazy fast bikes i could image racing one of those ever again lol

@volksdeutschewaffenss9670 Год назад

WOW that thing hauls ass for a 125 STUNNINGGGGGGGGGGGG

@nickpopovich192 Год назад

Well... I don't even know if you'll see this but, at least I tried to " drop by ". I got close. I was on Tolland Rd. Where it crosses one of the interstates, and I looked up on this hill, and it looked familiar. Anyways, I'm at Bradley right now. My flight doesn't leave until tonight, so I've got all day to reflect on this trip turning into one of the biggest cluster-fucks in my life! But hey, you should at least know that your videos do have an impact... enough for me to embark on this misadventure in the first place! I'm hungry, and almost broke. So I think I'll go downtown, and try to get me something to eat, and do the " homeless in Hartford" thing again for another afternoon. Shit, at least the busses are free here. But it be cold!! I just don't want to get stuck like yesterday and half to use all my strength just to hobble a couple of blocks! Damn, don't you people believe in sidewalks around here!!(lol)

That was definitely that color of blue was definitely popular back the '70s painted Vans that canary yellow. That's was the 60s-70s shade of Blue

I wanted Him to beat Mark Barnett so bad 😣....I know He won some 250/Supercross and 500 titles, but don't remember if He did in the 125 class

@albertnewmann6846 Год назад

It's a DG head, the old sand cast version....not a Webco head. The pipe is very nice and I recognize the name. I'm lucky I guess as I can get custom pipes for $400-$600.

Love that shade of the color Blue, and the fact of how badass that bike sounds, and because of how truly fast it is, being a vintage 2 stroke MX Dirtbike. Appears to be able to keep up with the modern 125cc 2 stroke MX Dirtbikes of Today.
