Hallo from Denmark :)

Hallo everyone.
So i searched Google after a motorcycle forum dedicated to bikes made in China. I found this, it seemed activ, so here i am :)!

I am 19 years old, from Denmark. and i bought my first motorcycle a month ago. Its a Fym A3 125, never heard of the brand before, its a copy of Suzuki GS125.

I paid 1050DKK (140EURO/194$) which was really cheap. Had 1300km on the clock and is from 2007. Everything works, no engine problems, not even problems with the eletronic, everything works.

Although nothing wrong with the motorcycle, i have taken it aparts, the frame has alot of rust. When am done sanding the frame i will paint it black with Hammerite, and the plastics i will paint Marine blue, and the chrome that i can save will be polished using AUTOSOL, other it will be paintet.

Picture taken when it got home with it, still on the trailer :)

Ohh, and if interested, i have uploaded alot of photos of my proges with the motorcycle here on a danish MC gallery.

Hi Marcus, welcome.

Cool, if you rebuild the bike properly using the correct Suzuki torque settings, threadlocker and grease it will be a better bike than it was new, as most Chinese factories are very lazy with their assembly.

Should be a fairly reliable bike for you, especially if you can keep it garaged, good luck.

Yep, well noticed, starter is on the front of the GS in most years but not all. But yes it looks like a Honda engine. :thumbsup:

Interesting though, not sure if he should do Honda or Suzuki torque specs on the rest of the bike.

I will keep it as standard as posible. Maybe make it look a little more sporty with other handlesbars, bar ends and such small details.

When assambled again i will give it a big service with new airfilter, gasoline filter, engine oil, sparks etc.

And it is a honda licensed engine like most of the chinese bikes.

One year later.
The frame and rims and fork and so on got profesionally sanded with sand and glass powder and paintet. I tried myself as you see in my last post, but it its imposible to get the rusty away without the rigth tools.

I had it startet for the first time today for a year. Its gonna be good :) still a long way to go.
