I’d get a pump up spray bottle and squirt it down on a hot dry day. Start on the obvious ignition bits. Plug, coil, CDI. Try the sidestand switch as well maybe. My mate had probs with the sidestand/ignition relay as well. It would only start with the ignition switch off... The high rev thing is weird though. Have you looked at the plug straight after it dies? See if it’s wet? Specially if you been playing with the jets...

I have a Dep full system on my red Dt, and it's still like new. I am anal in maintaining it though, mainly because I knew it was flaky finish to start with. Not a cheap replacement so you would think they could at least build in some resilience to the finish. Does liven up the engine though.

Cheers bud, that’s something to work with. I’ve got a good 3bn, my reworked 3mb and another 3mb (that I forgot about till now) that is battle~scarred but otherwise original.

@Stevie-Wonder actually I have a second rear wheel for sale with gold rim, but the rim is not so good looking anymore. Trying to sell it locally at the moment. And to be honest I loved the looks of the WR on 17's, but its just not the same. @Calum I never used my bikes for transportation, just for fun. And sure, after installig 17's I was driving in light terrain, meaning casual forest roads and it was a lot of fun too, as its so easy to get some sideways action on them. But as soon as I had to go thru some sand it was a pain and often I had to get off the bike and push it. On the DT Im building I'll put on some 50/50 tires on the 21 & 18 wheels.

Or does he mean tyre dimensions? Nobody knows!

https://www.rzrd500.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=16273 Just found this program, seems like a fresh well made excel sheet that contains everything you need in one program, and its free to use for anyone, maybe someone in the forum will find it useful

Yeah, they is diddly

@Calum hi all i changed the front to a 15 now and its fine now does 68 in 5th and should rev out in 6th should do about 80 but haven't had a open road with out traffic, very strange to lower the std gearing would this been part of the restriction ?

And if he keeps revving it up it’ll eventually stop making that tappy noise

Will try, thanks bud...

@gibboharps Welcome to the club dude!

Hi, okay, thanks @declan - may try and get it open , knowing there will be a backup plan!

@jonne123 I bought the usb/laptop lead when I bought my zeel. Very easy to use once you have it installed.

@pedrobatista10 keep faith my friend I’m sure you will be riding soon wishing you a full recovery

Yamaha just refer to both of them as Air Chamber on the parts diagram's - I still say its not a performance item and its just a bolt on for emissions / silencing etc.

@yannikmeister Fair play, I mean I am English and even I glossed over reading that so you are doing well regardless

@Arild said in Best carb for the dt125re 2006: @declan yeah my experience with them is the same, thought id post it because some people might not give them a chance because of the price compared to the branded ones that are 3x or 4x the price and think the replicas must be shit since theyre way cheaper and come straight from china, but so far ive heard nothng but good about them so if your looking at a new carb they seem to be a great option Been thinking of getting myself a replica TM30ss/TM32SS. The angled spigot as taught to me by darty is very helpful if you do any sort of off roading with your bike. However I certain can’t justify £150+ until I know the setup works very well

@Phil-k some printing stores on ebay that may be of use

@NINJA thanks man. I didn't think I'd actually finish it within a year

@Arild said in Best Big Bore Kit DTR: @RubberSalt youve told me most of this as answers to all my questions, still my mind ends up blown after reading this its alot of good information to take in, or try to atleast Thanks for putting all that together Well this is all rather very interesting, very very interesting indeed... After reading that that I might even scrap my plans of a 200 after reading this and seeing what was once an idea become something of a possibility and with both a 4DL setup and 4FU setup spare it’s not like I haven’t got ammo. I haven’t mentioned this either but I also have a spare 4DL head. More ammo? Also @RubberSalt I have as much to learn as I believe you have to offer. Very well written, whilst I admit it’s out of my depth (at the moment) it’s still easy enough to follow. I also use my phone so I know it can be a pain sometimes. Me and @Arild met the same way you did and had been chatting for a while now, helping each other out and talking about the unexplored possibilities for the DTR so I just got to say welcome aboard and thanks from me and on behalf of my little Swedish g. I appreciate you helping him out a lot, I could honestly only wish to be able to do what you have Anyways I do believe this could be quite a most interesting endeavour.
