    @primal-carnage

    Bud, no offence meant but just search ‘aftermarket dtr125 kickstart’ in the web. No idea what you like or would suit your bike…

    Unless you have some pics 🙂 …

    HOTSHOT IIIH

    @Stevie-Wonder Thanks bud 👍 Greta (for that is her name as she's noisy, irritating, aimed squarely at the youth market and responsible for thousands of them bunking off school all over the world) cost me half as much as my '93 due to the mileage and had a thick layer of grime all over due to years of grinding commuting. I gave her a scrub with Jizer (several times) and this is what was underneath 😳

    Here are the part #s for the toolbox and lid, bit pricey IMO and you'd have to get the lugs welded on to a non-e start frame. Be a nice touch if you were getting it powdercoated sometime though

    I used one of the cheap knockoff white ones, cost pretty much nothing and has never leaked, I fitted it using wellseal on both surfaces, never fit a gasket dry.

    As Calum said, you'll have to Jet it accordingly to try and get the best amount of mixture possible. But in my opinion it really just depends how much time you're willing to perfect it. If it's just something you want to thrash and aren't worried about the results you can probably skip a couple steps... I've certainly done that.

    I got some coming this week and wanted to see how many are running a sm setup with them as I have no clue how to make a bracket 😂

    Yeah I wrote a tutorial. Follow that and you won't go too far wrong.

    In the 3 years I owned my Gas Gas trials I never had a problem, changed the clutch and piston due to my riding style being heavy on clutches. Parts were easy to find and reasonably priced in my eyes, and it was just fantastically built and designed. To this day my favorite bike ive had, really regret the sale.
