Thanks for the tip Mike. I'll try it next time around.

Gary Roach

It looks like Mike is correct. Here is a '76 125cc Cross Country brochure.

I have owned one or two 1976 125 just like the on in Gary's Brochure.

Thanks so much for figuring this out guys. I don't imagine they sold alot of those 125's, especially out west. Now if I just had one of those motors and the correct tank! I do have a pair of the Marzocci piggyback shocks.

What color was the tank and side panels?

Larry Perkins

Orange and sidepanels were orange with yellow background.  They had jetting probs and were prone to seize.  Was not a good first effort for a KTM 125.
