Hello, I bought a 1974 Honda Elsinore 125, the front rim is chrome and it appears that it could be from an MT. The guy said he got the bike like that. I assume someone trashed the original rim,Correct ?

Possibly... unless the bike is an Elsinore MT125 instead of an Elsinore CR125M, which can be determined from the frame number if it's still readable. There was a lot of mixing and matching between the MT, MR, and CR models back then, and even nowadays, come to think of it.

It's a CR for sure. I bought the correct rim now. Thanks
