Bike looks superb. Done an excellent job there. Definitely will be on that infamous hall of fame...
Yeah side stand switch is common on all bikes. Should be relatively simple to figure out.
Hopefully it's the switch and not the CDI.
Yeah pumps can be weird to diagnose, better run premix whilst you're figuring it all out!

It didn't have a side stand switch before.
It was looped (wiring present) but I bought a universal switch. I'll do a circuit test on it.Yes I'm running premix arm. Engine is sweet!
No leaks! -

Can anyone help find me an original wr200 or dt200wr luggage rack.
I can't find it on the diagrams but many of them seem to have them from factory.
Part number?
Maybe only certain countries had them.

Here's the spare set of wheels and tyres that came with the bike.
Top brand tyres to be fair.
The rear wheel is a straight swap (3bn hub with 2.15 alloy rim)
However the front wheel has a different hub... Like the late 90s yz.
If the brake discs faces offset is correct then I could turn the hub in a lathe to get the brake disc to fit,Not really sure what I want to do with these wheels. Part of me wants to build them up with purple hubs and stainless spokes.
I'd probably sell the tyres as they are MX ones

Bike looks great btw!
Carriers are ten a penny in Thailand and South America

I've got a set of wr 200 wheels at home, front ones nice, back not so much but still usable, let me know if you're interested at all cause I'm not going back to nobbys anymore with my DT.

I will probably sell both tyres and the front complete wheel
