Vintage Dirt Bike Q & A

Does anyone have a list of Elsinore MT or MR parts (fork tubes, rims, tanks, etc.) that will interchange with the '1974 CR125M? I've looked up part numbers and they all seem to be a couple of digits different for things like the fork tubes, shocks, etc. but I'm not sure if the parts are really different. Any guideance is appreciated!

MT125 and MR175 shocks, MT125 and MR175 Fork tubes and MT125 tank are interchangeable with 1974 CR125M.
I'm pretty sure that MT125 and MR175 rims are as well.
There are slight differences (steel/aluminum rims, lugs on fork bottoms, fins on shocks, larger tank capacity) but they will fit.

Stick to the 175, as the MR250 is a completely different animal. From the 250: Handlebar controls, front fender, lights, a few minor things may work, but little else.
