Oh Yeah! I love the "mini SX" 2nd gen 125Ms. Great to see another one out there- Looking forward to some more shots of your new score!

There's some fine white, what looks like road paint splattered on it in some areas, it's coming off easily though. Pretty dusty, but really not any rust. The tank is like new inside. Absolutely not one dent, not even a little one. There's two small cracks in the plastic and the front and rear black flaps have some small issues, but that's it. The rim lips are not dinged at all. Runs like a bat outta hell.

I bought this because I had not seen another until today. Guess I wasn't looking.. Seen more since I started looking but not many. I just thought it was cool. Now maybe I can start throwing up a sig with all the trikes I own....I'm up to two big reds and this one lol. Next is a 250sx I have my eye on....

I thought the later 125s had suspended front forks? Maybe not...Nice clean trike either way.

Now that you mention "mini-sx" it got me thinking. Did they make suspension kits for 2nd gens? Or anyone make one?

Nice find by the way, 86/87m's look slick.

Ok first off sweet 86 the second gen 125ms are my favorate trike. And to answer 83 atc 185 s question no this trike didn't have front suspension you are probally thinkingg about the kawasaki klt 110 trike they are veary simular in looks. And to answer ghost atv quetion no they don't have any suspension kits and really there are not alot of aftermarket parts for this bike because it is drastically differnt from any other honda trike out there.

Y'all would go nuts if you knew what I found for this thing lol....

I will tell ya...it's on a ups truck heading to my house right now...pics when it gets here :twisted:

I usually don't boast a lot about my finds, because I'm usually doing Big Red stuff and anyone can find some cool parts here and there for those. But this is turning into my little masterpiece. But it ain't perfect, I need some nice rear splash guards...my right one has a chunk missing....which is really the only bad spot on the whole trike. I will post pics later of it, I cleaned a little more and was surprised at how it turned out with a little more elbow grease.

It's crazy that these little guys have reverse. And it can almost hang with a big red on top speed. Maybe not saying a lot....but it's half the motor of a BR. And you don't notice it not having suspension that much. Hopping back on a big red feels like you jumped into a Cadillac though lol.

Just a damn cool machine. Hauls my 250 pound ass around good.

I won't forget to show y'all when it gets here....like I said, I have come up on loot of a few cool BR things, but some aren't that cool when all I do is go full retard on an eBay auction. But this item was pure luck, and that's not something I have a lot of, at least the good kind that is...

Should be here by the end of the week. Here's some more pics after a little shining and whatnot...196085196086196088196089196090

I had a few coupons so I bought a headlight guard for this that had been on eBay for some time. Can't wait to put that on, I think it will look pretty cool around the headlight, the front of these need a little something to set them off.

There's a couple nice racks on eBay, but I'm not sure about those. Do Items that fit the older 125s, 110s and such got this trike? I would guess it's one of those deals where I will have to experiment. I'm sure everyone has seen the speedo kits on eBay right now, would either of them fit this? It looks like they would as the 110s and such have similar front ends. I have a couple more NOS speedos in the boxes (one will go on my 86 BR), but I'm just not sure of those kits on eBay would work with this trike and I don't want to get stuck with one that I can't use.

What a great pickup on that 86! I just love those last 2 years of the 125. And good call on buying a mint one. With this particular model, that is the only way to go. The parts like plastics for these are unobtanium.

Ok I don't know about the speedo but the rear racks for the older 110 and 125m will not work on the 86 now as for the speedo and the front rack I don't kbow the front end is almost the same between the old 125m and the 86 125m.

This isn't exactly the surprise I had but it's cool nonetheless.

Just put this on today, sets off the headlight pretty well

I actually have about 3 more surprises coming....maybe more lol. But there's one in particular that everyone will definitely get a kick out of... I would assume either tomorrow or Tuesday I will be posting the pics...

Ok...so here's the big surprise....
196375

I think y'all can see what's sticking out of it's original box back there...it's a NOS set of rear fenders! I'm almost too scared to pull them out of the damn wrap they came in lol. That's an NOS tire in the front too. I have a couple more tires I'm looking at....it's prying these things loose from folks that's the hard part....

I don't know where you found this of fenders you must have payed an arm and a leg.

Now, I can finally die....hehe. Awesome! I knew sooner or later a NOS rear fender for that bike would show up! People on here have been looking for/talking about those for years. I had a NOS front a couple of years ago. Sold it to a member here. Great surprise you had for us! This is a "bigfoot" sighting, folks. Thanks for sharing, and again, excellent ATC you have there.

And the "can you smell the freshness" is a quote from a YouTube show I used to watch, I am for sure not being cocky.

I never get lucky when it comes to NOS parts, and it usually doesn't matter if I have the cash or not...some things in AtC land just aren't for sale...but the gods smiled upon me this day.
