I seriously considered an RS125 in my last year of racing (1992, it's been awhile). The 125s were just appearing in the US at that time. They're really nicely made, and servicing them is absurdly easy. They require a very different riding technique than other bikes, however. Gearing is critical, the powerband is so narrow. If you mostly race at one track, this isn't too much of an issue. If you run at several different tracks, be prepared to swap sprockets regularly.
Sometime soonish, I may return to 125 two-stroke racing on four wheels. There's a fabulous kart track above Sears Pt, and karts are just as easy to service as an RS125, and have that marvelous engine. |
