    See i completely disagree there I've owned 2 rs 125s one 123 engined chesterfeild and a 122 spains no1 a dtr and a dtx 125 ..... and for me personally its all about the dtr ...... the rs is faster yes definitely. but both about the same with reliability rs parts are more expensive its alot more difficult to work on its so uncomfortable if your doing 30 odd miles a day to work it gave me the worst back pain but im 6ft 😂 and its little and i dont really find the rs has any usable power under 8k really there a bit all or nothing a bit balls to the wall or nothing at all ..... as where the dt is more usable as a daily and it's pretty comfortable for a trail bike .... but thats my opinion i guess it all depends on what you use it for ..... and i really like both of the bars so i shall see what they look like fitted i deffinatly prefer the black bars though 🙂

    @stinkwheeler I was strictly speaking MX125. Not RS. RS is a cracking bike for the summer weather on the weekend to rip around B roads. MX can do that and still be a good daily. Just like the DTR, but packs a far superior punch.

        I have a video of me and my mate on his mx 125 and the dt is faster all round the frame is much nicer on the mx and the build quality is far better on the mx ... but even with the mx having a 34mm carb and vforce it still stood no chance against the dt with a skimmed head and reeds .....

        The hills are alive with the sound of ... braaaap baaaaap 😁

                  @NINJA Although that said, if you spot any project RS250's let me know.

                  What I got planned, it would be criminal to do to a fresh 250. So I'm looking for a project.

                  The new style RS125 Panels fit the 250s. I'm looking to do a Biaggi Replica to match the 125. I think that'll look sweet in my collection.

                    @Calum The cheapest RS 250 on ebay is currently at £4.5k and rising. It requires some work to restore it, but looks pretty good overall. I guess that their not cheap bikes in any condition???
