    They are all my bikes and all duplicates for now....easier to keep looking/buying over here in Europe than restoring to mint, and cheaper!
    I've been collecting since 2003 when these bikes already seemed quite old, add another 15 years, wow where's the time gone.....A little bit of a pension sorted anyway. Loads of regrets not buying certain bikes over the years and I remember them all, originally too expensive when I was skint not working, then eventually not enough space. Mint blue DT200R for 1500 euros in Belgium back then. Several CRM125 cheap. My TS250X was only 800 euros about 4 years ago.

    These came out of the garage when the sun finally appeared the other day to have a tidy up and get an RD on my new Sky-lift ( I'm getting old) which is an excellent piece of kit. I sold a vintage exhaust on ebay for nice money so didn't feel guilty.
    I would never keep this many bikes in England though, let alone publish them.

    @declan I thought about those but could not find the right one's with the tachometer. I just looked again and found these which would most likely fit;

    Why you running a copper head gasket? They still need sealant IIRC.

    Just use genuine or Athena head gasket.

    @declan Bike theft is everywhere in the UK No Exceptions.

    @shaunp1912 The DTR's, unlike the E, don't generate enough power to operate the electrical components properly. A flat battery, even on an E, causes issues with the valve.

    So that sounds like your problem.

    No, all DT125RE's came with YPVS installed. Older 80's DT's, maybe with valves. I've seen a good number of 90's DT's without as well. But the majority of them out there have YPVS installed.

    Interestingly, had a new MOT on 5 November. Lost 5,000(+) miles off its mileage, so either had new clocks or up for sale soon with lower mileage.

    Oil capacity will be stamped on the case near where you pour in the oil it should be 750 ml in my experience I hate changing plugs on the dt I had to get a ratcheting spanner for it as it was a nightmare just take your time with everything although itโ€™s basic maintenance allโ€™s it takes is one snapped bolt and itโ€™s s garage job so just donโ€™t rush and it will be a really easy

    @Glynn123 100% original unopened engine,it was the reason i bought it.Unfortunately don't have a pic from the day of purchase,it could be a highly recommended scrap yard candidate.
    I have some old photos from the repair of the plastics,when i make a thread you'll see.
