New DT125X ownerđ
-
Good morning/afternoon/evening, whatever time youâre reading this!
My name is Jake, Iâve been riding for over two years now. Iâm currently 18, living in Walesó §ó ˘ó ˇó Źó łó ż.
Iâve just bought myself a 2006 DT125X for a reasonable price due to it needing a top end rebuild. Itâs a replacement for my 2015 WR125x as I wanted a bit more poke than the 4 stroke engine.
My DT is in pieces scattered around my garage at the moment as Iâm waiting for the piston to rebuild the engine. I have a few new bits to go on it too but I havenât done them yet.
Iâll be using this as a platform for help, guidance and socialising. If youâre interested in what I get up to on my jollies, or updates on the bike check out my Instagram @southwalesyammy
Kind regards,
Jake -
Hi Callum,
My stepdad told me I should look at getting a DT as he used to have them and a 2stroke would be better for me. I went for the Supermoto as I love the styling of them. I canât wait to get out on it now
I tried putting some pictures up with this post but couldnât figure out how to do it

@SouthWalesYammy Welcome aboard Jake. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

@Calum The only question between owning an MX 125 or a DTX would be which one would require less regular maintenance? My DTR was great fun and if I had my time over again I would have bought a DTX over the DTR. I would say that the DTX would be more reliable over an MX and would also make for a great commuter bike too. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

Welcome!!
i own a dtx too, and its an amazing bike! hope you enjoy it
@Calum @NINJA both engines are very good, but since i own both engines, for me rotax its much superior in terms of fun, thats for sure. but dtx for everyday use wins easily. my aprilia always thirsty, its crazy how much petrol i spent in one month with her :face_with_tears_of_joy:

@pedrobatista10 Yes but using more petrol = more speed!!! :motorcycle: :dashing_away: :dashing_away: :dashing_away:

@pedrobatista10 Thank you! I hope itâs as good as everyone else says! I canât wait to get it in the road now.
