Yamaha dt125re rebuild
-
@BraDT good luck mate,by the way,what is the headlight cowl/fairing you are using,i like the look of that one:thumbs_up:
-
@bonus was on when I bought it mate personally prefer the original but I think it’s a polisports universal
-
@bradt The good thing about the original RE one is how much light they produce. That's probably why I didn't swap mine out, as I didn't want to compromise the light.
-
@calum it’s all in the bulb I had a purple h4 xenon in my stick headlight I got the wrong ones i ordered the re ones but I got it to work and it was so bright like crazy bright
-
@calum honestly I don’t know how you could want a brighter bulb it was like an air raid lamp I’ve never saw the stock bulb brightness
-
The original DTR headlight with better bulb is one of the best stock trail bike headlights I've come across. I used to ride for hours at night,
I tried to be cool with a WR400 headlight... because I couldn't find a Blue DT-RE unit.
It's terrible.
Better off riding with a BIC lighter in one hand.

As @Darty rightly said "The original DTR headlight with better bulb is one of the best stock trail bike headlights."
Stick with the stock headlight and just add one of these bad boys, for a top quality bargain upgrade and your good-to-go!!!

@calum mmmmmmmmmmm I had no probs with it. What's the average watts a 125 rectifier pumps out then?

the front fairing on mine is smashed to bits and the lens has a crack in also so i was thinking aftermarket as there is not many original ones about..sounds like i might have to keep searching!

@vishanj ,thanks mate but mine is a 2005 bike,i think it has had a bit of a hard life,well cosmetically at least,it could do with a full new set of plastics aswell as the lamp,i will get round to it eventually but stowed under at the minute.i just do little bits and bobs with it when i have the time,shame really but i have rode it less than 30 miles since the start of december!
