DTDR Build

@notgotaclue It's going to depend on how hard you ride the bike.
For normal riding, it makes a noticeable difference, the biggest difference is just braking.
I found for every day use, my stock DTRE was fine.
Since You said he already has a supermoto, it probably won't make too much difference under normal riding.
@calum oh yes , after Im changed the brake lines for hel braided lines, the standard forks always compressed like crazy ,not cool in the situation when you need stop quickly and whole weight moving over front wheel.
1979 Jawa Mustang 50
2003 Gilera DNA 125 R.I.P
2015 Keeway TX 125 SM

hello yam all the way lol
son has a yamaha dt 125x 2007
standard why change swing arm and front shocks
how much do they change things for riding and handling -
@notgotaclue to be honest mate I wanted to reduce the bikes weight (and the wr200 swinger just looks mean lol!!
I also found the DTR forks to be like Pogo sticks under the force of sharp breaking. -
@tdrgreg2 How do the MX 125 USD's, compare lengthwise to the stock forks? Ie. Does the front sit at about the same height as standard??

@declan no mate the spacer was custom made on a lathe.
if you run a kickstart only DT I believe you can then do away with the battery box and run a capacitor. I also think to my knowledge the shock will go on but the top mounts will need changing and you would have to use the wr linkage,bearing in mind this will Jack up the arse end extremely leaving you to lower it.

You'd need aprilia rx 125 forks for a nobly set up as the brake is positioned higher for the bigger disk on the sm wheel

@vtrn_raptor sorry, why would a tyre make any difference to the braking system? I don't have much understanding of bikes lol
-
I stand corrected theirs a bracket on the mx calliper so with the rx bracket would fit fine
-
Basically the supermoto wheels have bigger disks so need the brake position in a Different place to the off-road wheels
@vtrn_raptor oh I get you now, thanks man

@Yamboy46 Hey sick build is it possible to get the measurements or the file you used to make the spacer? thanks in advance mate
