they are well again RT125 and 95 saxon tour

hello
back the 29th of april i broke the starter freewheel in my rt125
then 4 days later i broke the same part in the saxon tour
"MURPHY'S LAW"

about a week later i got the parts from rotax
http://www.rotax.net
for the saxon
but the very next day here come the parts from england for
the rt125 so it went back together in about 10 days from break down

the saxon tour made it back together today june 27 2005 i was a bit slow
in putting it together i was very busy and had never worked on a rotax
motor before so i took it slow and looked at the book a lot
so now that both bikes are up and running the weather report for
the next week here is RAIN
:-D
the cost rt125 $126usd
the saxon tour $215usd about $30 of that other extras for later
all labor was by me $0usd
and $2 at a flea market for some used tools to make a clutch adjusting
tool for the rotax motor
hope this make me good repair for the summer

yo take good care of it that is a nice one

and if you need a part you cant find
look for David Silver spairs there in the uk and may be able to find it for you they deal in honda NOS parts
http://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/
also ask and i can look at the big swap meet at mid ohio
in july every year plus i have a friend that is a mc parts horse trader

if you come across a extra lid for those buco bags i need one
or if you trash one of yours i have 2 good bags and one lid
but the mounts are home made for bmw or rt125

the RT125 now has 10,000 miles on it thats 16,000 km rt is 3 years old in july 23 2005
and the 95 saxon tour is at 13,000km thats 8075 miles and
thats 2826 miles since i got it in oct of 2003
:-D
