    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 it’s basic maintenance all’s it takes is one snapped bolt and it’s s garage job so just don’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.

    Thanks all, I'll get some photos soon, there are one or two cosmetic bits I want to change as I like the standard look rather than the teenager one.

    Thanks. The bike is from 1993, I think someone has put later decals on, should it have the blue and pink ones, and blue fork gaiters?

    Aftermarket ignition system is one of the best mods for these. Make sure you got a decent 3MB head, or a reworked 3BN head.

    [image: koala-drool.jpg] That is glorious... my favourite colour scheme for the DT. Is she all original? Apart from the silencer and stickers of course...

    @dinkydong The lack of privileges is because I don't take commission on you people using my site, instead I merely ask that users contribute to it. If you want to sell your wares, then you must build up a relationship with the forum, or sell it on GumTree or eBay or BikeTrader. Sorry it sounds harsh, but if I let you sell your bike on here, then I open the gates up to every man and their dog taking advantage of my good nature. And that's no disrespect, that's just how it is. Sorry.

    Hey Pete! Cracking bike to have, is this your first bike? I did many a trail on my RE and was a great laugh. Be sure to use proper by ways else risk getting yourself into trouble. I'm sure there are members near your way, what a great way to have a laugh
