Still a great looking bike, kind of prefer it without the luggage wrack and headlamp grill but still looks fantastic. Great job.

I would have to agree, but hey each to their own and she stills looks mint!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@NINJA I know what you mean.... Especially if you prefer the MX look... but it's basically to match with my other DT.
Such quick and easy parts to remove if I wanted to and refit whenever.

@Louis-James True but for a show/collectors bike it's not a problem really. ;)

[Louis-DT-WR]

So I had to keep playing out of OCD and curiosity 😂
Minor details but here they are.

Adjusted the rack lower so it looks not so ott
Before above
After below

New fender tool bag

Yes that is looking so smart!

@Calum thanks cal, got a few other bits done.

Only really posting it to complete my thread

Got a cheap plastic 4BF tank that I cleaned up...

Decided to jet and fit my standard carb to oe spec then rejetted accordingly

Much more tidy!

[Louis-DT-WR]

Since the 4bf tank Didnt have a locking cap I bought an acerbis one

I need to make a bracket to fit this tank as the 4bf has an additional bracket.

Left the other tank on for now when I was jetting.

This has come such a long way since when you bought it. Just looking at page one. And you've done it in such a short space of time. Is a fair ol achievement yo yourself!!!

[Louis-DT-WR]

@Calum thanks again mate.
I made the mistake with my other DT of doing it and redoing it a few times.

This one I thought it through to do most in a logical order.
Ironically this was better condition that my 125r when I bought that....it was only 6 years old.
This is 26yrs old.

Joys of owning a bike owned by 12 year olds compared to mature owners :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:
