    Hello,

    I have owned a Yamaha DT125X 2005 for a few years now. When I removed the front forks to replace the oil seals I noticed a crack on where the spindle is pinched, so I am looking for new forks. It is impossible to find a new/used pair of dt125x front forks and they are different to the dtre and dtr forks. Does anyone know of any bikes that shared the same forks or does anyone know of any forks that would be a straight swap into the dt125x yoke?

    Thanks,

    Ryan

        Hi, for some reason it doesn't let me upload pics, I get weird error messages come up. But there is a crack on the outside of the pinch point and another inside where the spindle goes

            Post your pics on Imgur, copy the link to them. Then use the 3rd button from the right on the toolbar to link it to this site.
            This site doesn’t host pics, just links…

              yes, but im in south Spain and struggling to find someone that will weld it. Everyone always says its dangerous and dont want the resposibility ffs haha. So a replacement would be more ideal
