1982 CR 125 Good and bad??

[crbp888]

Hello,
I am new to the vintage seen but love everything about it. I am looking for my first project bike and was not sure what I should go with. I really like the early to mid 80s Honda CRs as this is what I grew up riding.

Can someone tell me the good and bad about the 1982 CR 125? I was only 6 when this bike was made but that was the year that I got into Motocross plus I have an opportunity to buy one.

Thanks

If you want an early 80's Honda, I'd get the 83-85 model...I had the 82 model and it had a great engine mounted in a frame more like a bucking Bronco, with so so ergos....83 was a drastically better looking and handling bike. There's my .02 :)
