    @HOTSHOT-III Bud, thank you! I can get the PV working on the tizzer now for not to much money. The length of those (impossible to find!) cables wouldn’t of last a winter without lube ports at the highest point! Plus stainless cables! …

    @DTGREENLANER I'd say that's a dry bearing inside the servo somewhere, I think they can be taken apart and the gear train serviced. Never done one myself but it's pretty much a scaled-up RC car servo, just take your time and lay everything out in the order you removed it and you should be all good. Southeast Asia is full of DTRs, DT230 Lanzas etc. and some of those guys repair the servos quite often.

    Yeah, I used a Honda CR85 Apico one on mine. I though the YZ 125 ones didn't fit.

    Not familiar with a 1994 DT175 (I presume this is from the Asia (Far East) market). The oil light will just be for the two stroke. There are no sensors that do gearbox, the most you get is a Neutral Light sensor (if you're lucky). For the gearbox oil, the only sensors you see are with your eye balls and the oil sight glass. I can't 100% say this is the case, but I say it with high confidence that this will be the case. Hopefully that's useful. Calum

    Cheers @beng1968 . I must admit, I bought 2 more Athena kits sometime after this post was made and can't concur with the opinions here. The casting was spot on and it was very good value for money. Considering it comes with everything you'd need to bolt it onto your engine, I'd say it's good value. I will agree it's not YZ rip roaring performance from stock, and considering the extent of tuning on my DTR, it's still nothing compared to a stock Aprilia RS 125. However, it's not without its merits. The extra CCs give a nice broader range of power, which as I've gotten older I've come to appreciate more (I'm no longer 75kgs wet ). I did take my cylinder to Mick Abbey for further porting and there is still more porting work that I need to do on my setup. It should be a decent bit of kit, when setup properly. The first experience I had was when I loaned my brothers 2001 DTR back in 2010, he'd fitted the Athena kit amongst various other mods, and that went very well. At the time, I went all in on a ported 3MB00P cylinder from the TZR Belgarda and that setup definitely served me well. I haven't been on my DTR for several years now and I am eager to fire it up again to rejudge my opinion.
