Hi and welcome!
I too have followed a dream and are currently battling my newly purchased DT 125r back onto the road.
As other guys have said eBay and gumtree are great resources.
I find some of the groups on Facebook to be a great help for breaking parts.
Also new parts in wemoto, Yambits, Aj Suttonβs, motorcycle spare parts.
I have found though the original parts cost a lot of money!
Hope you have fun and think of the end result when your patience is tested......because it will be! -
@jem71 Welcome to he club, at 46 your still young dude. I'm 49 and had not ridden a motorbike for 30 years since I was 18, young, dumb and full of cum!!! LOL
I got into cars at 18 and it was only until last year I fancied owning a motorbike again. Of course it had to be a DT and I loved it!!!

@jem71 It's 100% legal to have the speedo in KPH, it's how fast you ride that isn't. Just do the math's in your head eg.
48Kph = 30 Mph
65Kph = 40Mph
97Kph = 60Mph
112Kph = 70Mph
Just be mindful of those speeds and you will stay within the speed limits!!!
