  Yeah not sure why, ive seen 2nd hand cases labelled 3BN 00, 01 and 02. Maybe its the place of manufacture, or just subtle changes in materials or something? Ive noticed the 00 case has a couple of shallower indents on the outside of the case, and a couple of radius corners are subtly different. Could be a different manufacturer

  I think it's one of each bud. Think. To be fair once you split the engine it should be obvious. They will be labelled appropriately.

  Many MOT testers don't care tbh, but you could file the numbers off or do your big bike test. I think 2 strokes cc should be measured from above the exhaust port anyway

  You'll want a fly wheel puller. And you'll need to lock the crankshaft off to remove it. Pretty simple job though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PRO-13PC-HARMONIC-BALANCE-CRANKSHAFT-GEAR-PULLEY-PULLER-FLYWHEEL-BALANCER/122134506298?_trkparms=aid%3D555017%26algo%3DPL.CASSINI%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D53530%26meid%3D7ad1578465b741d992b0a55ca04a7f02%26pid%3D100505%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26%26itm%3D122134506298&_trksid=p2045573.c100505.m3226 That for a DTRE, you'll need a different one for a DTR.

  https://imgur.com/a/dvpHDWy Went to a place where they teach welding and stuff today. A guy there made a pretty good job. Not knowing exactly what material it was combined with a dirty oily piece and I'm definitely happy. I'll trim down the piece a sticking up on the first image. Correct me if I'm wrong, does the starter wheel(the wheel that's connected to the flywheel) spin with the engine? Or does it only move when the starter is turned over? In that case, the tolerances shouldn't matter as much.

  Is this a good buy?

  @Bananper The dog ears are in the gearbox, they are what shift the gear cogs into place from the selector drum. I can't see why there would play. The primary shaft is fastened against the case and the bewring.

  Skim the head and barrel before you leave, it's the one thing that WILL let you down on a DTR, even if it's not visibly warped it will leak from the gasket, the surfaces need to be absolutely perfect.

  @jimmydc98 If you had a chuck big enough you could machine it in a lathe. But it does sound like you would need to send it away. To be honest with you, it's really not that expensive. It cost me £80 to get my Starlet head chemically cleaned and skimmed.

  @2Stroke4Smoke No, that sounds like the powervalve retarding to me. It should pull hard to the red line when derestricted. The ignition on the DT is a reliable tune. An aftermarket ignition (for me) didn't do so much to the top end as it does to the mid range. Much punchier throughout the rev range. No doubt peak power was increased, but it was definitely the midrange I was impressed with. I just bought a Zeel for my RS from PJME at a cost of £300. I paid £160 plus VAT for my DT one years ago. It's a worth while upgrade, great place to start if you're looking for extra ponies, but don't compare it to a KTM as it simply ain't that.
