DTX 125 PRODJECT

@Glynn123 That's the heat affect, which is caused by the metal's properties changing due to the prolonged exposure to the heat being pushed through it. Which is more noticeable on welding seams as the weld causes the molecules in the metal to change slightly, which affect's the metals properties and causes discoloration in the ends of the metal pipes. Only a surface coating like chrome plating will hide those blue and orange tints for-sure, otherwise they will return as you have stated.
@stinkwheeler If you lowered the picture res to 1920 x 1020, you will also be able to store more pics on your camera, as each photo will take up less space on your memory card.

@stinkwheeler Well that and no one ever rings me so I don't exactly need a phone.

@Calum its verry much the same for me in that respect of not getting phonecalls .... i literally just use my phone for taking pics ... googleing things ... buying bike parts on ebay .... and most importantly this forum lol i do spend more time than i should looking at other builds for ideas to steal

@stinkwheeler How far is work.
The one thing I miss from my commute is the smiles on my DT riding like a bit of a tool. Always safely, always within the limits, but there was something about the ring ting and smoke that put a smile on my face.
Not sure I'd get a KTM personally, too hefty price tag for something not as good had it been made ten years ago.
I'd opt to get something very cheap, very reliable. Honda CG. But RC is a lovely bike.

@Calum boring 4 strokes though you know the 125s lack a certain excitement factor more practical but Iām not a fan of the 125 four stroke engine anything over that I like though
-
@declan Yeah, but it's not all about excitement. You're going to work and you want to get there reliably. On a budget, then they have a certain finese. Hence why I wouldn't go all out on a 125 fourstroke. Get a cheap and cheerful one.
