On the plus side it seems like you enjoy working on your bikes and the engine will end up as nice as the rest of it looks

Ouch Going to be messy in there, the kickstart is solid..
Any clues? Was she running hot?? Oil feed ok from the tank??
If she's solid, she might have dropped s skirt and the piston is jammed. Hopefully the barrels will be salvageable. Maybe it's time for a cheeky 410 conversion??

Sold a fair few of those 125's when I had a Yamaha shop in south Africa. We sold mainly the white ones and a few blue. never seen red ones.We called them RZ125LC and the 16 yr olds had a miniature version in the RZ50 LC.
Suzuki also has the fantastic RG50 Gamma for the kids and Honda had the MBX 50 all liquid cooled.

I had never seen a Red one before my own one, then Pauls mate Jimmy turned up with another one.We called them RZ125LC and the 16 yr olds had a miniature version in the RZ50 LC.

Pauls is White and Jimmys other mate has a Blue one so that's four of us with them localy
