Hi from darkest Dorset

[Jem71]

Bit of a list I'm afraid...
most of which I have managed to find on ebay.
The bike is a French import so the first thing on my outstanding list is some sort of overlay for the speedo
Do they even make these???
Sorry, I'm a bit of a bike dunce.....

@jem71 I would leave the clocks in Kmh unless there is some real need for them to be in Mph.

It would be a new set of clocks, which are either not going to be cheap, or battered. You may also need the UK spec speedo drive.

[Jem71]

Is it legal to ride with just the kmh?
Have googled it, but got lots of conflicting answers....

@jem71
Hi and welcome!
I too have followed a dream and are currently battling my newly purchased DT 125r back onto the road.
As other guys have said eBay and gumtree are great resources.
I find some of the groups on Facebook to be a great help for breaking parts.
Also new parts in wemoto, Yambits, Aj Sutton’s, motorcycle spare parts.
I have found though the original parts cost a lot of money!
Hope you have fun and think of the end result when your patience is tested......because it will be!

@jem71 hiya unit 5 sell an overlay on Facebook or atleast they did I meant to get one give them a check

[Calum]

They don't even test the speedo on an MOT. I would tell the tester that the drive has been converted to measure MPH but displayes KPH. They won't ask.

[Jem71]

Lovely, thanks for the info!

I forsee many idiotic posts from me in the very near future.....please have patience...;o)

[Calum]

@declan Mu Starlet is KMH bud. It's a grey import.

@jem71 Welcome to he club, at 46 your still young dude. I'm 49 and had not ridden a motorbike for 30 years since I was 18, young, dumb and full of cum!!! LOL

I got into cars at 18 and it was only until last year I fancied owning a motorbike again. Of course it had to be a DT and I loved it!!!

@jem71 It's 100% legal to have the speedo in KPH, it's how fast you ride that isn't. Just do the math's in your head eg.

48Kph = 30 Mph

65Kph = 40Mph

97Kph = 60Mph

112Kph = 70Mph

Just be mindful of those speeds and you will stay within the speed limits!!!

Hello, how about a picture of your bike, don't forget to check European ebay as well, postage can be high though but good for finding elusive parts
