Dt170 vs ktm exc 125

@calum but you believe a crm is 30 bhp and a Yamaha dt 20 bhp? How is that difference even possible?

Pretty sure no one did.

@irongamer727 well you gotta understand that bikes aren’t always in competition with each other it’s just the way it is for example a ktm 525 I thought would be a beast but it’s no where near as fast as any 450 not that I’ve ridden either bikes

@declan Cylinder wall thickness I expect. Only so much porting you can do.
You could get the DT to be like a YZ. Just needs blue printing.

wrote on 30 Oct 2017, 17:56 last edited by@declan the am6 has so much tuning potential. You could go for the Parmakit 110cc or for more performance the Stage 6 90cc or something like that. But spending those kind of money on a moped engine isn't worth it. You're dt is still going to run better.

@declan I'm saying with lots of cash you could achieve anything. But it's pointless at this point as you may as well have bought a better engine.

I think they're really versatile. Loads of tuning bikes, were used competitively yet have all the features to make them tame for the road. Can be tuned very well, and take lots of power.

wrote on 30 Oct 2017, 22:39 last edited by@irongamer727 That sound is obviously deeper being a 170, but it sounds similar to my Romeu Hendriques system? but ofcourse its alot quieter on my bike haha, I had an old style circular Dep silencer a while ago on my DT and it was very loud and sounded "poppy" like that 170, im pretty sure it had no or very little packing in it haha.
This is a clip of my bike, sounds better in real life mind

@Irongamer727 No exhaust stuffing is actually counter productive,
but, Induction plays an important role in the exhaust note.
Mine sounds really good.
