Browsing a Honda ATC group on Facebook and came across these. The first is a big red with a conversion kit on it. The second says its an 86' "Little Red" that I've never seen or heard of before. I'd like some info on it if anyone has any.

rear fenders looked different to me also on the "little red" someone commented that it was "rare and beautiful". I should have caught that the first one was a sx. guess thats what 30 hours of no sleep will do to ya.

The 1st is a 1985 250SX with a Yeti Snow kit..these kits show up from time to time on the Kijiji or CL. I wish I had a little more 'right place, right time luck!'..want one!
The second I'm not totally sure of..my guess would be a 1986 125M. Looks more like a Mini-SX that a 'Little Red'!!

I have heard the term "Little Red's" back in the day when people talked about the 86-87 125m's. They are strong little machines and they could be used just like a Big Red but just smaller ( and no suspension ).

The wild and majestic 125 mmmmmmmmmmmmhhhhh lmao. The "stand up" 125 is more rare then the standard 125 you see everywhere. That one is also in great shape to boot!

Second bike is 86 125m. The rear fenders are fiberglass reproductions. There is a guy that has them on ebay from time to time for 179.00. The mud flaps are built-in to the fender, so it is normally all red, but these have been painted on the edges to mimic the mud flaps. The headlight is a wildcard and looks like it is off a dirtbike.

I saw that one also on the same group.
About the aftermarket fenders on the 125. They look straight on the back, is that how they are made or did he cut them? It has a aggressive/sporty look to it either way.
