        @jonne123 I believe they are different part numbers yes for the speedo drive, I use a DTX Speedo drive with mine.

        But, beware DTX are waaay better forks, stiffer with less travel in them, they are also shorter than DTR forks which really helps the front end geometry for a Motard setup,

        I have to run 30mm solid bushes in the DTR forks to take out the fork travel and make it somewhat reasonable to ride, otherwise I think it's pretty bad.

        I know WR125R forks are better sprung out the box, and that is a straight swap, you can just run the non mechanical drive WR125R Speedo sensor to the OEM Digital clock, pretty smart setup

        Keep it real

          @Darty So you recommend DTX front fork and DTX wheels. And what else Yamaha parts fit dtr like forks or rims?

              As @Darty said, get the complete set-up for less hassle. 😉

                            110x18 and 80x21 are about the same;

                            You can go up slightly on the stock rims to;

                            120x18 and 90x21 but that's the limit really.

                              I'm running 120/80/18 and 90/90/21 Avon road riders on my dt. They are a little pinched up on the narrow dt rims. My plan was to have slightly wider rims laced onto the hubs. Still handles much better than on off road knoblies lol.
