After I started a thread to find out when 125 production ceased, no one could say for certain but the consensus seemed to be some time in 1977 or 1978. Victa may have had a large inventory of Mark IV 125s which had the G4 barrel due to the majority wanting the beefier 160cc. Victa may have devised this "2 stroke" model to run out the last of their 125 stock by offering it on an alloy high arch chassis, but with basic wheels and handles, at a value for money price point compared to a 160cc model. These were a hidden gem of a machine as they still had plenty of grunt and are actually more durable than the 160.
