    Bike looks superb. Done an excellent job there. Definitely will be on that infamous hall of fame...

    Yeah side stand switch is common on all bikes. Should be relatively simple to figure out.

    Hopefully it's the switch and not the CDI.

    Yeah pumps can be weird to diagnose, better run premix whilst you're figuring it all out!

    @Calum thanks a lot man.

    It didn't have a side stand switch before.
    It was looped (wiring present) but I bought a universal switch. I'll do a circuit test on it.

    Yes I'm running premix arm. Engine is sweet!
    No leaks!

        @NINJA thank you 🙂
        I rode it before I stripped it down.... rapid!
        I've just got a few little things to sort out before taking it for a proper spin

                Here's a running video.
                https://youtu.be/s9rmjz71dsU

                That oil pump was definitely blocked inside the casting..
                Got another on order.

                    @NINJA cheers 🙂

                    Can anyone help find me an original wr200 or dt200wr luggage rack.

                    I can't find it on the diagrams but many of them seem to have them from factory.

                    Part number?

                    Maybe only certain countries had them.

                      @Louis-James Is that the original one which came with the bike? If so why not just get it re-powder coated???

                              Here's the spare set of wheels and tyres that came with the bike.

                              Top brand tyres to be fair.

                              The rear wheel is a straight swap (3bn hub with 2.15 alloy rim)
                              However the front wheel has a different hub... Like the late 90s yz.
                              If the brake discs faces offset is correct then I could turn the hub in a lathe to get the brake disc to fit,

                              Not really sure what I want to do with these wheels. Part of me wants to build them up with purple hubs and stainless spokes.

                              I'd probably sell the tyres as they are MX ones

                                @Louis-James you tried DTX wheels in your WR? I'm going to run mine this year as-is and rebuild it next winter but would like to sumo it and use as a commuter.

                                Bike looks great btw!

                                  I've got a set of wr 200 wheels at home, front ones nice, back not so much but still usable, let me know if you're interested at all cause I'm not going back to nobbys anymore with my DT.

                                    @Glynn123 do you have a picture of the front wheel?
                                    Is the tire on it?

                                      @Nottsbiker thanks mate. The only wheels I've put on my dt200wr are the original ones.

                                      I will probably sell both tyres and the front complete wheel

                                        @Glynn123 do you have a picture of the front wheel?
                                        Is the tire on it?

                                          @Glynn123 ok thanks.

                                          Would you prefer to sell the whole set up? Or do you want the tyre?
