    @Calum Don't be sorry, I think it looks great too, it's just they aren't my colours and they're way louder than I am. However I've ridden the bike and now, and immediately realised I actually couldn't care less what it looks like. :-) Cheers!

    I would have a guess and say, we aren't sure. This isn't an LC Forum it's the R and therefore there isn't a wealth of information on the LCs unfortunately.

    @DTTOLATE You’ll need a very accurate measurement of the bore top middle and bottom, you’ll need for this is a dial bore gauge, it’ll tell you the OD of the bore and tell you how round it is etc etc, I send all my barrels and crank to Jim bailey (roadrunners) and he does it for me, I’ve been using him since 2017 for all my dts and mx bikes rm yz etc anything that has a steel liner which all mine was as they was sleeved, he’s very good and last time he did my dtr barrel I did 11k miles before stripping the bike for a restoration it still ran lovely.

    I use Apico pegs on my 2005 DTRE. I don't have any specific photo :( [image: 7Nvfxxs.jpg] https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363326677211?hash=item5497f520db:g:XJkAAOSwoN9hQ58x&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4MQHTQDqQZgaSUbR41SECdVQC9SKHoZ9z0Rtfooo7bD18BAdcDgXW%2BrELfnZegRT49Egrp0E86gII4ALplrEMYUv7njMv8ZC8ThCO3WC%2B4KXoOgfjNAXX2OJr9HIYoqXBl6PYKMQYsNvGRwpBkBsstCO2ukRTZA1ifjTww0UoYGpwziz6BF%2FrNYI6GJ2TVPuPk73Uy78wq8jIXErR5%2FOGIQRlImPHyYaMjenabKbSXlPQUtUcWEzmxOpGgyEm%2BXgupwaskcDFwQ7fSJ8kG8X6R5qJerUCDoUpphyubbHgI%2B6|tkp%3ABFBMjNWp_KVi [image: s-l1600.jpg]

    @giggscork Hey bud! Ola! Please reply to my thread and let me know what your 91 dtr revs out to in gear while riding! It’s quite a relevant year for me to know 🙂

    @markus-w ok, thanks. Hopefully someone will be able to answer my question even if it is an old bike.

    @Scootjockey Every new piston I’ve brought for my Dtr has been a 3mb TZR piston. As long as the bore size matches the Dtr barrel, then all the porting/cut-outs and ring pins are in proper places 🙂 ... TDR pistons however are totally different 👍 ...

    @rraleks My piston ate away because of overheating and a weak mixture. It was the beginning of my head gasket adventure, IIRC

    @markus-w The KTM lc2 use a 520 chain on the water-cooled dtr 125 engine. Maybe you can fit a bigger front sprocket from this bike.

    @calum I will agree with you about the sweet spot....RD 125, 250 ,350 ,500 not counting the 50 or air cooled modles as well as rgv 250, 500 plus the Dt modles......CR's....KX's the list goes on..its just the sound and smell of a two stroke preferably with a non standard pipe/s . As for electric bikes I'm coming round to these as I like some of the e-mountain bikes but at around 3 grand for a good one I can get a well sorted DTR for that. Plus I've had motorbikes since I was 18 and have never considered myself a biker but just love riding and tinkering with them. But due to my wife being ill and work have had a four year break and I'm now looking forward to getting back into them and getting a DTR is now the goal.
