[Calum]

@declan Uhh, no. Bet the quality will be shocking!

[declan]

@calum I've dealt with cheap Chinese parts my whole life and given the choice my dt would be full of them

[Calum]

@declan Shame.

Watch BigCliveDotCom and you'll realise what you're buying can be so bad.

[Calum]

There is some stuff I'd happily buy, but you definitely see what you're getting when you look at something British made compared to made in China.

[declan]

@calum nah I trust them to a certain extent remember I've owned pitbike for years and they're 100% chinesieum

[declan]

@declan Chinese parts don't exactly scream craftsmanship but tbf the Chinese dt looks like a death strap

[terry.tz]

there is a place in the market for chinesieum stuff but personally, it's not in the DT market
I'm glad it's not a 2 stroke or it would have probably been the same block and then there would be nothing but cheap sh!t in bikes sold and repaired by chavs even people that like DT's would do it just to save £££ and save time looking for genuine parts

[Calum]

@terry-tz The ONLY saving grace for this bike is this.

If there were ever a shortage of road legal non category write off frames, at least we could transplant the DTR components to this frame.

Don't know how good the frame actually is mind you, the stock DTR is a beast.

[terry.tz]

@calum can't agree it would be like having a fake Rolex but can't say I wouldn't do it if I had to

[declan]

@terry-tz personally I wouldn't trust the engine it looks too cheap to me

[oldman]

Think the bike manufacturers are missing a trick here, must be a market for a modern dt, a cheap trail bike for the masses, know they have the wr but not the same, something retro would be so cool. Who wouldn't want an old dt, xl, st, ts etc

[oldman]

Dont knock the chinese bike makers btw, lots of modern bike parts and whole mainstream bikes produced in ROC. What do you think they are doing with all that knowledge and development input from the main players.

[terry.tz]

@oldman I didn't expect you to be on the side for chinesieum I'm all for cheap bikes and parts but just not for older bikes or cars for that matter I think it's an insult to their design and unfortunately, I don't believe for a second they will be around longer dou to them cheap things being sold I think it will just aid in the loss of these bikes I'm not saying there is no market or that you should not buy China parts just don't agree with the chinesieum insult to the DT get use to chavs asking if you wont to sell your bike for £500 and them think its a good price for your immaculate Yamaha DT125R
