    I will have a look at the engine tomorrow for the letters. The bike was first registered here in 2005 and the first mot registered with the dvla was in 2011 and has been motd every year since. It's first mot here in 2011 shown there was only 18000 K on the clock and it's now sitting at 24000 K so bike hasn't been used that much in the last 5 years. How much do you reckon the bike is worth? I only paid £750 for it two weeks ago with full years mot. It's not 100% needs paint touched up, left indicators fixed and electric start plays up but it has kick start

      @tdr125

      Saw a really nice 3SH French One go for £1550, it was very original, low mileage.

      It's hard to say what it's worth, but £1100-1250ish seems about there with touch ups in a sound condition.

      Keep it real

        @tdr125 Electric start is definitely something that is worth fixing if your planning on selling it on. Shouldn't be anything more than the motor itself which aren't too bad price wise, if you can find one.

          That price is fine with me. Yeah it just clicks when you push the button. Battery is fully charged. How do I go about taking it off the engine. Do have have to take it off from behind the fly wheel cover.

            Yeah to access the three bolts, I'm pretty sure you have remove the flywheel cover and the flywheel itself so bit of a pain.

              Ok thanks for the help mate. I will look at it tomorrow. Hopefully it can be fixed as there is only 1 on eBay and they asking £170 for it

                Yeah they go for silly prices on eBay as there is so few about. You want to find somebody breaking a DT to get one a lot cheaper. Try the DT FB pages as there is usually one or two people breaking bikes on there. There are also a few bikes that share the same starter motor and are a lot more common. Can't recall what bikes exactly. I think I bought mine from somebody breaking a Derbi.

                  In terms of what starter motor you can use.

                  You have a lot to chose from. From the tzr, dtre and tdr to even starter motors from completely different bikes. Derbi gpr 125 sachs 125 and possibly ktm lc2 . They all ran dtr engines. The starter motor simply clips onto the relay so there shouldn't be any plugs that need swapping.

                      My derbi one had a different plug to my TDR so it is possible it will need changing.. But it's very little work either way.
