lior_baruch Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hi all, Just bought a Montesa 123 from a friend. The bike was standing as-is for years, it's about time to bring it back to life... The frame number is MH123-00047, not sure about the year... I assume it's 1972 as the number looks like the very first production batch? Looks like many parts are not the original parts... Can anyone tell me more about what I just bought? parts sources etc.? Thanks! Lior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagecota Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 It's not an early 123, it's an early "MH" 123. After Honda bought Montesa, they put out "MH" bikes starting in 1980. Are you kidding me? A Corvair in Israel? I'm a 123 guy AND a Corvair guy, both the earlier versions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Corvair and a Montesa are rare/none in Israel, no more than one hand is needed to count both Lior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
