PIC HEAVY (wr200 topend , zeeltronic, tm34ss carb, V-force reed block,Larger radiator,DEP PIPE,)
-
See what I mean?
-
I used a tm34ss from a Aprilia rs250
Note the angle spigots, this makes fitting a lot more easy and the float bowl stays level
-
I had to carefully enlarge the manifolds bore to 34mm and also increase the size to fit the carburetor in, I managed to add a grip step to match the carburetor (this adds more stability.)
Because the size of the carbs inlet I had to compromise. I tried a yz250 evos rubber boot which almost was perfect but it kept breaking due to age.
So plan B was like this:
-
It wasn't the nicest way, but it works well
-
I also removed the top of the airbox previous to this mod
-
A few pictures of it fitted.
-
I had to blank off the vacuum pipes on the carb and I also adjusted the autolube because of all my modifications
-
I forgot to say that my DEP exhaust is for a wr200, so it's perfect for my bike. I had to make custom fixing and rubber mounts. Note how long the silencer was hahaha
-
Dt125r dep and wr200 dep together. It looks like I'm punching it, can't remember the reason for that
-
The silencer was a bit long
So I cut it down, I'm after a different end cap if anyone has one spare?
-
This bike really is amazing and I'm totally enjoying reading through this
. I'm guessing all these upgrades must have cost a lot of money ,definitely worth it though lol if this was my bike I'd be scared to use it incase it got dirt on it or a scratch 
Every problem has a solution

And I sold a lot of the old parts for decent money.
Stay tuned

Sweet ride. Beast. Did you try the 3XP 200 top end with a 125 crank before? I know its a longer stroke with the 200 series. Which one do you think was lighter? I got a WR200 top end and 200R bottom end and gearbox replacement for a rebuild but I won't have a chance to compare the two.
-
No other won't run with a 125 crank it's like 8mm shorter stroke, also a dt200r has 0.7mm shorter stroke than a wr200 if I remember right. If you want to sell your top end I could build another engine
-
And ofcourse I had zeeltronic make the first DT125R CDI for me and for all my help I only had to pay for the handheld reprogrammer
This was perfect for my project to set the powervalve limits and curve.
Also great for ignition timing.
Although they did wire it wrong originally and the powervalve ran backwards
But soon sorted it.

Safe, yeah 200s are like 57mm, 125s at 50mm. just wondered if you had built up a crank shaft assembly before hand. I wanted to start from scratch with a crank. Yeah had my suspicions about a DT200R crank in a WR barrel. I'll see what I can do with mine still.
This stuffs getting hard to get.
Keep it real

@Darty gets easier to understand
if you skim the top off the barrel to allow for the dt200r crank it would change the port timing slightly, or you could skim half off the top and half off the barrel base. I've thought about that before -
So that was the engine / tuning complete.
A summary of what else I had done prior:
Shot blast and powdercoated all metal parts in blue and white.
First time rebuilding forks, removing the stems bottom bearing was very difficult.I recently rewired the rear looming
-
Throw back pictures showing previous powdercoating, zinc plating and every bolt replaced with Allen cap head stainless steel bolts
I had to drill out so many bolts and tap the holes because most were seized.
-
Fairings and plastics
When I bought this bike the fairings were all scuffed so I replaced all them and the graphics (dd graphics)
New cowling
New front fender
New rear fender
New rear side panels
apart from the rad scoops as they are very pricey.
(I don't like the Portuguese shape ones)I've just recently bit the bullet and bought these: (I like the original graphics to match my fuel tank)
I will add mesh
