Project I can't leave things alone!

[gareth_iowc]

Whora hijack!! Haha

@scrimsmustang just bolting a light to a yz isn't fun. It's all about building something your way that no one else has.

I'm not some one that can just buy and sell bikes I get attached to them. I've had my dt 9 years and it changes with me. No other dt would ever feel the same. Its like having a child and watching it grow.

@Calum ah ok thanks annoying. Has it changed? I used to upload from my phone before.

@gareth_iowc Have you changed the resolution of your camera. Yeah maybe, the forum had a massive outage recent where the HDD failed (probably right after 3 years of solid abuse).

[gareth_iowc]

I don't think so... I've got an Apple ishit and it's stayed the same as far as I'm aware. I'll upload them to the mac and try again

[gareth_iowc]

Right lets try again...

so these turned up yesterday

had the headlight cowling a while but i finally ordered the others.

all brand new and genuine.

i haven't ordered the front mud guard yet as i think i might use the more sporty looking yz one.

@gareth_iowc Gotta wait for them to embed themselves before hitting submit.

In the text area, click "SHOW PREVIEW".

DO NOT CLICK SUBMIT UNTIL THE IMAGE APPEARS IN THE PREVIEW.

[Calum]

Looking good. They set you back much?

Worth keeping your old ones for when you decide to go offroading

[gareth_iowc]

@Calum was still a size/rez issue but lets you get to 100% on mac

[Calum]

@gareth_iowc I believe the NGINX proxy will time out requests if they take too long. Your Mac is probably faster than your phone.

YOu can always upload them to Imgur yourself don't forget

[gareth_iowc]

@Calum i don't have an account and i'm lazy

i think the cowling was £120 and the rest came to £275 not bad for genuine parts that aren't really around anymore

[Calum]

Wow, that's more than I was expecting...

[scrimsmustang]

@calum

People collecting plastics now, they should as even these later 98 till 02 Blue ones are becoming nla.

The Blue cowl is now nla, so are the side panels. Mudguards and tank panels are still order-able but will probably run out soon.

[gareth_iowc]

So the new stator with lighting output turned up today.

But still no sign of the bike

[scrimsmustang]

@gareth_iowc They are just to say up to the job, running through a 12v regulator the lights are like half out candles at low revs so you might need a sympathetic mot tester and the horn you can just to say hear. I ended up fitting a battery powered mountain bike horn it was that bad when just using the lighting coil. You can replace the DTR ignition circuits in the DTR loom with the YZ ones and then you still have the DT,s standard reg/rec and charging system and keep your battery. Its not to bad once you get into the loom, done this years ago on 06 YZ125 with DTR loom for lights for me mate..

[gareth_iowc]

@scrimsmustang were you using normal bulb lights? i was going led all round.

my m.o.t tester is one of the 3 blind mice
