DT125R 1994 Running Project
-
just showing the drops of oil looks like both 2 stroke and bottom end oil ill give it a good clean in a day or two and try locate the leak looks like its from gear shaft
needs drilling and taping although cable ties doing a great job
if i had a welder then i could of just run a bead on the back as it have nasty stretch fractures on the bend might ask a local garage
seems a bit oily to me
-
@terry.tz they can be a bit waxy from previous head gasket failures how over is recommend a rebuild as the first thing to do then paint and as you build it back up fix and replace the little issues but a nice bike anyways you keeping it original?
-
@declan naa it not staying original well I don't no time will tell I suppose and ye I think it is the gasket tho seems a bit too smokey as for rebuild etc as much as I should do it I need it on the road asap for a few weeks then I can start tidying it up so unfortunately I don't have a choice little things are going to be first
-
@declan that will be a long time very long time if ever, to be honest, it probably always be a tinker toy if you know what I mean but then again as already stated time will tell I do have some ideas but ill keep them close for now things can change

bike was cutting out at every stop and idle screw wouldn't budge and was rounded a bit so I took it off for a clean and to loosen the idle found they have a security bolt so it only had a quick clean got the idle moving tho took some shifting like but carb wants doing again it's looking sorry for its self need to get a rebuild kit for it really seals were almost none existant -
looks good but don't think the DT likes iridium plug cut out on me a few times and been a pain to start so I removed the oring I had holding it more open and it been fine but at full chat ish it has bogged a few times very slight think it could be getting to oily
