Ignition key replacment
-
@SpookDog my relatives bought it in switzerland from a neighbour in 2006 i think and they imported it here in kosovo its should of been registered in swiss but by many chances we are the 2nd owners of the bike and that makes me think its a model that was exported to swiss
-
@SpookDog im looking if i can derestrict it somehow thats why im looking to find the year model
-
@SpookDog idk what the servo one is but it does have a pwer valve conected to the cylinder with 2 cables , can you explain what the servo is
-
Electric motor that the two cables come out of. Makes a noise when you turn the key.
If you count how many wires the servo connector has you can date the bike… -
@SpookDog are you saying the 2 cables that go from the power valve upwards to a black thing with wires?

@erion
More questions! Does your bike rev freely above 7000RPM? Does it have a standard exhaust, or an aftermarket one?… -
@SpookDog the cable for the rev metter is broken i need to buy a new one as fir the exhaust it has a standard one with akrapović muffler or idk what its called in the end
-
@erion it is 1994. My 1999 DT125R french import says exactly that on the v5. But on Yamaha database it says RE. It's not electric start, I believe the E means it's a European model which were different in a few ways.
-
@markus-w yeah as that guy said i checked it the servo has 3 wires so it means it should be 1985 to 1995 maybe its a 93 or 94
-
@markus-w if its 94 do you know if i can derestrict it somehow without having to cut the exhaust or having to buy a new one
-
@erion don't know much else about this year to be honest only some of the older European ones has a little washer type thing spot welded into the exhaust at the header to close it up and restrict it. Remove the exhaust and you'll see it if it's there.

@erion Bro you need to chill
These bikes are incredibly simple. The fact of the matter to me seems like you are accepting a botched repair rather than taking the time to do things properly.Tapping up the ignition switch, and God knows what other botches you're doing, is going to bite you in the backside big time. If that wire comes loose on a ride out you're going to be stuck in the middle of nowhere with a brick of a bike.
Juat relax and take the time to do the job properly and it'll pay dividends later on.

@Calum im actually not doing much cus the bike was in perfect condition i just wanted the key to be fixed and ill get the cables for the speedo and rpm counter and thats it but i cant seem to find what the problem is the bike turns over time after time and runs like 1-2 seconds and turns of
-
Sounds like an ignition problem to, presumably it was working before you messed about with the ignition?
@Calum no i installed the ignition yesterday afternoon and took it for a ride it was good but i had the same problem a week ago and i thought it was carb related so i took the carb out and took it for cleaning yesterday i put the carb back in on the morning and i rode it like 2 hours it was just fine but now its doing the same thing it did before a week
