    @rking7888 the 125x/re are very similar to the 230 with a few changes like ally swingarm, twin rads, headlight etc. I think that the 230 is the top of the range if you like

    Regarding the frames the dt200wr was meant to be a soft-enduro and so the frame is borrowed (not 100%) from the yz's where as the 125/230 is a trail bike and used the dt frame from around '88 with only minor mods across its life span

    Jeez, it's possible that the the bolts seized into the aluminium. Dissimilar metals and all that. That said should still be easy to remove the bolts. The aluminium case will expand when heat is applied so should be simple to disassemble.

    Yes the pump pulls off the shaft so long as you've disconnected the oil lines and cables etc.

    @spookdog @Calum Found it!, i found a break in the kill switch wire in the middle of the loom! Not sure how it was broken but it was obviously breaking the circuit. As soon as i sorted that it fired straight up. Many thanks for all the ideas and help. very useful.

    @calum @declan You've been very lucky then. It all depends on how the goods enter the country and which courier is handling the items. Since Brexit you have to complete a customs form for RM/PO and comply with Notice; 143 if your sending or receiving stuff from abroad. RM, Fedex, TNT, UPS and DHL are red hot on adding import taxes and goods will be held until they are paid. But it all depends on the value of the goods, anything under ÂĢ135 or 150 euros is fine, but you will get hit with duties over that threshold.

    @andrewj1680 did you ever break this mate?

    @andrewj1680 said in Debating breaking my dt/wr200:

    Hello lads lost interest altogether and thinking it must be worth more in bits, it's running a wr200 3xp engine with a ported and modified squash band done by mick Abbey tuning a full fmf exhaust for the wr200 direct bolt up, has wr200 upside down forks along with the wr200 front brake setup it also has the wr200 alloy rear swingarm with adjustable damper

    @waale2004 Best jetting for Athena 170 is 300 main jet on the
    Mikuni tm28 but with the powerjet blocked off. Just cut the
    rubber tube in half from the float chamber to the powerjet then block the 2 halves of the rubber tube with a couple of 5mm threaded bolts or similar.

    @finchfocker I myself just bought the DCCDIP1 race. Seems like a great unit, just programmed myself a ignition map to start off with, hopefully I'll get a chance to plug her in soon!

    Thanks for all the on and off 😁 topic replies. I managed to get a front rim off ebay from a guy 2 miles up the street ( weird ) that's in great condition, spokes are on back order so sorted for the front, so the hunt is on for a rear. I'm not rich , I'm on minimum wage so this restoration is on a tight budget, but if you can't start with a good base ( frame, wheels ), it'll never be what you expected. The temptation to break away and do my own thing is incredible, but I just want to see how far I can get before breaking down and setting fire to it 😁 😁 .

    Think Unit 5 Motos have a similar 200 in for ÂĢ2200 that needs some work
