@calum sweet bike

Sadly I badly injured my back at work a few months ago, so I've been unable to do any work on the bike since the injury. My back is getting much better now so hopefully I'll be able to restart working on this project again real soon.........

@Minia yes, my spare one..if they sell they sell or I'll just keep them 🙂

Once again, many thanks

@pedrobatista10 keep faith my friend I’m sure you will be riding soon wishing you a full recovery

@oldman Personally I would return the damaged one straight away.

@vtrn_raptor I got one of those Cyclone alarms, which is perfect for my use case.

A full paid tracker system can really save your bacon.

@donaldmendez
Thanks, it didn't take anyway near as long as I thought to get it up and running. I've just been doing some final touches.
I'm going to ride this one on nice days 🙂
Here's how she stands now.

@Calum I’ve been hovering around, admiring the good work here

@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!

@Calum i do a similar thing if i need to remember some numbers or specs ill just send the message to my brother bit confusing though when he gets a random 47 come through in the middle of the night

Imageworks did them for me, have been really helpful doing most of my graphics. Much better than Facebook ones, good quality comparable to genuine.

Happy new everyone and all the best to all!

not had chance do any work on my dt recently unfortunately but hopefully this is the year to get things done on a plus just found this what I think would look ace on the project

@calum I've ordered a crank now I'll see what I end up with

@louis-james Don't know about TZR cylinders.

But

3MB
3MBP
4FU
Are bolt ons.

The 3BN has a slightly bigger bore, so shorter stroke, as a result, a 3MB con rod will bit too long.

Hey everyone hope you’re all in good health.
It’s been a while since I’ve been about so it’s nice to hear from you all.

Have you ever seen a DTR less out of place?

Life’s been keeping me busy and on top of that I’ve now got the luxury of using the ole DT as a weekend treat.
Luckily summer has granted me quite a few days to get the bike out.

And with miles of years old unexplored public footpaths and by ways accessible to a little two stroke trial bike it’d be a crime not to break a few laws and go on many a excursion with your bike in to the countryside for a little explore. Pro tip: farmers fields usually have ditches at the boundaries so prepare to get your enduro on.

Despite now using the DT as mainly a weekend toy I still don’t shy away from using it as my weapon of choice for a nice little long distance adventure. This is “A house for Essex by Grayson Perry” ft. My dad on his now long gone trusty varadero. The site is actually a beautiful quaint village with plenty of backroads and seafront nearby 10/10 recommend for all of you guys.

Also something a little different… Keeping things true and blue I couldn’t help myself, this is Maureen (in memoir of my nan) my ‘98 FZS600 streetfighter. My first “big bike” and let’s just say she’s an absolute dream to ride. Fairly nippy too.

However I must as fast as the Fazer is the DT still puts a smile on my face every time I ride it so despite what anyone has said, it ain’t going anywhere.

And for anyone that’s read this and is genuinely curious she’s running like a champ on the same piston/rings etc she had when she was imported from France 2 years ago.
When she blows up it’ll be Wr200 or Lanza 230 engine time. Got a nice little piggy bank ready and waiting for it.

Norwp, I needed to make sure that I could physically mount it to the radiator aswell.
But thanks for your concern 😂

@stevie-wonder its good for the price, you just have to be careful and only use it on the right parts

@darty Ideal for you to get on the restoration vibe 😄

Check the choke passageway in the floatbowl, for some reason people never clean this when they clean the carb.
