I still always have an old DTR kicking about, this is my favorate colour scheme, I dont have this anymore either.
-
@scrimsmustang Definitely one to keep an eye on then!
That Baby blue one has to be one of my favourites from your collection.
-
@scrimsmustang I'd like to track down a French market, Endurance Blue DT200R in the future. Fittingly 1980s.
I'd like to have an IT490 and 88' DT200R sat together.
-
Plenty of 200's in France - you just have to pop over and pick one up

Love the blue, great colour scheme. Would not mind a 200 either as well, be a single man though!
This was an 88 Japanese 200 with less than a 1000 miles on it built on a 2002 125 frame back in 2004
-
Did you modify the frame to hold the oil / go with twin rads etc?

No ran it on a single 125 rad and 125 oil tank with no problems at all.
-
@scrimsmustang what are the it models like?
-
490 air-cooled, no power valve - mental I'd imagine
-
@nottsbiker I do like the shape a lot just not sure if they're a pig

That IT went really well, It had a tuned YZ490J topend on it, having said that a modern 250 YZ would run rings round it. If you like low down grunt and doing wheelies without trying thats the bike for u lol.

Do you ever see any of your old builds about? Be sad to see one abused, would risk buying that though would have to keep elsewhere I think
Out of loads, I couldnt count them I have only ever seen 2 for sale, both on ebay an Endurance Blue 88 and a White 89 with 88 decals. Helped out with insurance claims on 2 that have been stolen also, one just recently a Blue/White 97.
These 2 where stolen
Blue 97 Black 01

I must be getting old as i now like the original indicators over the naff mini ones which no other road users can see.
Looks like DT ones are the same as early TDR so that will make my search easier.

what are the four restrictions?
