    So hopefully the main part of the project will be done this week.

    Got the oil tank all set up nicely.

    I had to extend one of the coolant hoses as was way too short.

    This fairing bracket I ordered was no longer available so made one myself.

    As you can see the fuel tank is in amazing condition for age.. didn't even powdercoat it..

    All the colours are colliding and making a nice 90s mess haha just as I wanted.

    The fairings are ready to collect from the body shop

    @Louis-James if its got the voltage reg already I should think it will. Probably have 3 white wires going to the vr and one red. The red is the 12v positive output that would go to the battery.

                        @Louis-James OK Thanks, I ordered some from that dude before for my DTR, but the sheets were a bit on the small side. Good quality heat shield tho - nice and thick, I'll need some for my MX 125. 😉

                          Well this was annoying.. normally wemoto is good but they sent the wrong brake lines... Says on the box dt200wr 3xp.

                          Will not fit. Even if routed differently.
                          Thinking about 1990-96 yz250 lines now

                            New horn
                            New yz250 rear brake line
                            New yz250 neon pink disc guard (matched shock spring)
                            And the FMF fatty. Can't believe how much thicker the metal is to the DEP.

                            Just the final bits and pieces need doing. Still waiting for the indicators and custom front brake hose.

                                      Does anyone know how many of these were made.. and different parts of the world quantities.

                                      All UK ones are imports.

                                      Does anyone know why they were only produced for 3/4years

                                        @Louis-James As far as I know the idea of the DT200WR was to build a trail bike that could compete and win in enduro races. Though obviously that brings the question as to why go halfway... also they were being made at the time when 2-stroke emissions were starting to be criticised and overall the appeal of 2-strokes was dying down considerably. Luckily in recent years it has picked up again. But I think back in the 90s there weren't many people who actually wanted to put the money in said bike.

                                          @Louis-James As far as I know the idea of the DT200WR was to build a trail bike that could compete and win in enduro races.

                                          @Minia that's a bit like what happened with turbo cars around the same time.. phased them out and whacked the insurance up... And now most cars have a turbo these days
